I just got a new computer a month ago or so, so I'm using an old version of AVS video editor. I need to upgrade to something else soon.
 
here is the newest video. I submitted it for a GoPro contest, so if you like it on youtube it will count as a vote. Thanks

Please dont be offended by why don't you correct the color? It seems very very green on my computer And is this the gopro Hero2 or the older model? And what housing are you using? The go pro U/W housing or the Backscatter housing?
 
You got my vote! :D

Hmmmm..... looks fine on my screen and he is defiantly using a filter as you can see the red tint at the start of the video. Perhaps you just need to adjust the color on your monitor?

I have the original GoPro Hero 1, with a Blurfix flat lens and the UrPro Cy Red filter. I made a comparison video back in march, not a very good video, which does show the difference between what I have now and the stock housing. everything in my video was filmed around 70 -85 feet with only sunlight. Sorry for the crappy comparison, I can make a better video for you guys if you would like.

murf, great vids! I love the soundtracks as well. Really helping me chill out in my office today. Can't wait for the weekend. Happy diving!
 
thanks acteg, as for the music, its basically what I hear as soon as jump in lol. On a sadder note, some of you may have already seen the thread with the dying Goliath Grouper in FL, well the video was shot by myself yesterday. We went diving in Jupiter on the wreck trek to see the groupers, vis was about 20-30 feet, not too much light down there tho so sorry for the quality. We stumbled across this dying Goliath Grouper, we tried to revive him but we were unable to. So we collected his tags and have already contacted FSU and FWC. Here is the link to the thread on here: http://www.scubaboard.com/forums/fl...oliath-death-scientific-research-jupiter.html

Here is the video I shot:

While I loved most of your videos, I have to admit to getting pretty angry watching the night dive with the turtle video. I have a real problem with divers waking sleeping turtles up and then chasing them around. Turtles don't have night vision and will bump into reef structures, possibly injuring themselves. They also search out safe ledges and places to sleep. They are unlikely to find these in the dark. They slow their metabolism so that they can sleep without breathing for long periods. Waking them up changes all of that.

I love finding them, watching them sleep, then quietly fin away without waking them. I am really upset with myself if I unwittingly cause them to wake and flee.

OK, end of my rant.
