Solomon Islands video

[mojo]

Lee prompted me to finally post my pictures and video from the Solomon Islands from almost two years ago.

The pictures most people have seen already, but I'll link them http://www.flickr.com/photos/ckhorne/sets/72157605668094903/">here</a>.

Here's the video:

It's about 10 minutes long, and it's just me swimming around a bunch of corals. But it's pretty cool, given that the whole place is just covered with hard corals - maybe 30 acres worth? The colors aren't great because this is just my old point and shoot camera without lights, but gives a good idea. Enjoy...

Yeah it only took a few kicks in the rear. I don't know man, looks pretty BB to me....well, CC if you will....coral covered. Man it's truly amazing to see evey inch covered in coral! Thanks for posting!

Thanks for the kudos everyone! I wish I had a better video to show. This was my old camera setup - just an olympus 5060 with external strobe. It did fine for macro shots, but wide angle wasn't very good, and video was abysmal, especially with no lights to bring color to the corals. Either way- it still gives us a view into a spectacular coral garden.
