Cambodia trip videos uploaded

I was at Koh Kong province for 18 days - this is at Cambodia, and we went to this island from Sihanoukville.
Nice time with the kids.
I was there as the uw videographer for them to produce a video for the government to consider gazetting the area as a marine reserve.
Some of the uw shots are viewable at the grouper site.
The land videos of the school children are at youtube.

New Videos uploaded


I found some old tapes of a trip in 2004 to Lembeh, Sulawesi, Indonesia. This must be my best trip ever - great companions, and great marine life shots. There was this strange frogfish (it's more knobbly and rough looking than the usual painted frogfish, which seems closest to it) ardently following a bigger similar one.
AND the dive guide spotted a mimic and wunderpuss octopi facing off one another. We arrived and they split: the 4 of us took turns shooting both of them. Glorious.
I was there for 10 days - first with the marine biologists, and then with my ex gf. The former did not see any of these things mentioned - they were found after they had left. And so i post these videos - for them and all else to see the beauties of these great macro dive site. I think it is the best ever - well I have yet to go to PNG and Wakatobi.

You can see these 4 video clips of Lembeh at the youtube link on the sidebar.
There is also a small clip of the marine bio on the boat..too bad youtube's flash conversion process pixellated the pics and garbled the audio. Watching the video gave me a good chuckle and brought back some nice memories.

Sabah video uploaded

Finally managed to upload this megabyte file of a Sabah trip -spent 3 weeks over 4 resorts. Lovely time. Best stay ever at Kapalai in one of those water bungalows.

More videos..

Here are some sample videos.
It takes some trial and error to embed videos on this site: grouper keeps posting videos only to my aikido site, and youtube does not allow the disabling of autoplay.
So the rest of the videos will remain on youtube and grouper: just click on the links on the sidebox.

Another video from grouper post

Videos posted

Thanks to a recent lead from my brother in Australia, I have finally found a good way to showcase videos done. Here are 2 recently done - on marine life of Singapore.
I have also done one on Aikido. You can see that at http://tendoryusingapore.blogspot.com/
That site is better done as there was more time spent composing, as compared to this one, which was set up as an experiment to post video online.
Well that's it for now.
