    Thanks very much…. Using custom white balance before every shot along with HDR and HLG2 really improves colours on its own… there wasn’t much post colour grading aside from highlight exposure increases.

    This is spectacular Daniel! Was this after the liveaboard? The detail and clarity is unreal. Can’t get over the colours of the sweet lips and blacktop aneomoes

    Thanks Mark! 🙏🏼 It was at Lily Beach Resort 🏝 which was before the liveaboard. The colours really pop even more in HDR if you have a compatible device 👌🏼 We are off in December again, this time for a month…. with a two week Deep South Shark liveaboard trip included 😊 so hoping for some nice shark action in the next videos 👌🏼

    Nice video. Did you use the wet lens for hermit crab or cannot you focus on such a close distance with this lens?

    Thanks! I used Nauticam WACP-1 it focuses up to the glass of the port, great for macro and wide angle

    Great content Daniel, just wondering how much a days diving costs at the Lily Beach Resort?

    Thank you 😊 Diving costs are dependant on if you dive guided or unguided, using a boat, and if so how far the boat would have to travel. Roughly speaking it was about $80USD++ for a two tank morning dive on a boat, and $50USD for a single thank afternoon boat dive (in December 2021). Hope that helps - happy bubbling!
