Diving in St. Vincent is a haven for Caribbean critters! Its thriving reefs are teeming with marine life, making every dive an exciting hunt for hidden gems. Over a week of exploration, we encountered elusive orange and green frogfish, mesmerizing nudibranchs, and dazzling displays from squid and octopus.
With an incredible diversity of macro life, St. Vincent truly lives up to its reputation as the ‘Critter Capital of the Caribbean’!
I shot the footage using a Panasonic GH5 in a Nauticam underwater housing and edited it in Final Cut Pro. The music was composed by me.

Amazing close ups, strange mouths opening and closing and delicate limbs waving.
I visited during a good week for photography. I was testing out a new lens (Oly 60mm), that provides detail without getting too close. Also, there weren’t that many divers so when I found something, I could spend a lot of time with the subject.
You are so fortunate to experience this fascinating place and underwater world with such beautiful, diverse lifeforms. Isn’t it fun to compose your own music too! I had a software program on a desktop years ago that allowed me to compose music with a wide range of instruments and styles. Fun hobby. I do really enjoy your photos and video posts.
Thank you for your kind words! Capturing, editing, and enhancing these short clips with music or atmospheric sound has been a challenging yet deeply rewarding process.
Seeing the final piece come together and being able to share that experience makes all the effort worthwhile.
