It was such an honor to be invited join in the wor It was such an honor to be invited join in the world manta day celebrations with the @mantatrust team at the stunning Four Seasons Resort at Landaa Giraavaru Thank you to everyone involved for making it such a wonderful experience. It was great to share some of my work in the natural history conservation film-making field with the attendees alongside a presentation from @mantaguy on 20 years of collaboration between @fsmaldives and the Manta Trust. It was also such a treat to catch up with the manta trust family, fellow patrons, trustees, and research team. If you love mantas please do follow the @mantatrust for conservation news, scientific research and tonnes of stunning manta images in your feed! Happy World Manta Day everyone 🤘 📷@jasminecorbettphoto
After 25 years and many thousands of hours underwa After 25 years and many thousands of hours underwater around the world I finally broke a life promise and went for a dive in England 😅 The site was chosen for me and it was (obviously) a quarry, with 2m vis and a water temp of around 14°C even in the middle of summer. It was an absolute pleasure to share the very green experience with @marksharmancam while we completed our @gates.underwater STO course on the dual 8K Black Magic Cine Immersive camera inside a Gates housing. Thanks so much to Gates, @richstevenson.uk @dave.blackham and @waterproofmedia.tv for putting on the course for us. Looking forward to putting this rig to the test in slightly better conditions back home in Malaysia soon

The eyes of white tip reef sharks are adapted for The eyes of white tip reef sharks are adapted for their nocturnal lifestyle. Typically they hunt at night or in low light, overcast situations. I’ll always keep an eye out for hunting behaviour when it’s dark and stormy. When it’s sunny it’s a great time to slowly creep up and get a shot of those beautiful eyes while they rest on the sand or rubble Diving with @seaventuresdiverig Filmed on @reddigitalcinema DSMC2 Gemini Support from @fourthelementdive #reddigitalcinema #sipadan #whitetipreefshark
