BLUE EYE FX UNDERWATER FILMING, EGYPT

I have just got back from two weeks diving in the Red Sea which was amazing - the dive sites and the wildlife there were fantastic - so much coral and animal life on some of the worlds best dive sites. Some of the highlights include stingray, turtles, giant moray eels as well as hundreds of species of fish and coral. I didnt see any sharks though :-(

Wreck Dives, Night Dives, Drift, Navigation and deep dives are just someof the speciality dives I did.

As well as getting some diving practice in achieving my PADI Advanced Open Water Certificate I also did some training in underwater filming with Deborah Metcalfe of Blue Eye FX Productions using a PD100 in housing which I later edited into an underwater film of my own, diving on Ras Mohammed National Park on Anemone Reef.

The course was brilliant as it really gave me a taste for all the facters involved in underwater filming, not least the actual art of diving itself, being confident in the water and getting your byouancy spot on. I am hoping to go back in April to train with Debbie who will be training this years Rolex Schollars.
