DIVE HAPPY

Find out more about Thailand's most famous dive area, the Similan Islands, in this video from Fins Magazine

With the FINS Magazine relaunch, the FINS team are branching out into making videos of their dive trips as well as the usual words and pictures. This first attempt features ace underwater photographer Tony Wu along with two Bangkok DJs Plub and Ake from Chill 89 FM talking about the Similan Islands (widely regarded as Thailand's best dive spot and one of the world's top dive destinations). As well as them talking on the boat, there is some absolutely beautiful underwater footage of some of the marine life you might encounter in the Similans too.

You can read more about the video at FINS own page about it and Tony Wu has an interesting take on appearing in front of the camera rather than behind it.

It's very well put together and edited, even though the sound quality is a bit messed around by the wind -- but who really cares about that? The main thing is filming this stuff and sharing it. I have been pondering how to shoot video of my next liveaboard to make it into a short film, so this is quite inspiring.
