It was a great experience to have a one-week liveboard safari at Sudan. As a result, I have now ca 950 videoclips waiting for editing... ;-)
I decided to start from dives to Wreck of Umbria. Here is the first clip: Diving Wreck of Umbria (Part 1 of 3: Wreck overview) - YouTube

Umbria is really cool wreck to dive. This clip is recorded outside the wreck, and next clip (to be published soon...) will show the interior of the wreck (...engine room, bakery room, narrow corridors, trucks, bombs, chrystal plates, etc.)
 
Nice!
Now brew some coffee and get the rest uploaded!

On side, trivial note, the cartridges were ooold Italian, not 6.5 Carcano.
 
As promised, here is the part 2. Diving inside the wreck of Umbria. It's amazing wreck, but much more challenging to dive than e.g. Thistlegorm. This is because you have to know routes, or you get lost....
However, there is lot of things to see, e.g. cargo rooms with thousands of bombs/explosives, trucks, many different rooms like bakery, laundry, etc.
Have a look get the feeling.... ;-) Link: Diving Wreck of Umbria (Part 2 of 3: Inside the Wreck) - YouTube
(I recommend to use HD resolution, which you can switch on from player's lower right corner...)
 
Excellent video of an amazing wreck. Nice job! He is using a Sony hdr sr12. Very nice rig, I shoot the sr7. These images are probably even better when viewed direct from the computer or bluray, downloading them looses some of the sharpness. I'm jealous, hope I get there someday.
