Thanks, Andrea – Video is much harder than it looks! My only regret is that I hadn’t yet installed my underwater blurfix filter. But now that it’s on, I hope to get back under the water soon!
I’ll have to ask about shark pit, thanks for the tip.

Thanks for sharing the video view underwater, this is one of my favorite dives – check out shark pit nearby next time. Nice job for your first experiment with the go pro, keep sharing

Thanks Karletta, I am so happy I did it! And you saw it well – menacing yet so graceful! And completely in charge of his universe. It barely noticed me, believe it or not. And there were several of us in the Blue Hole (12 divers).

And the shark? Menacing yet so graceful in his element. Congrats on knowing you could do it!

Thanks so much Linda! :=)

It was surreal! An outer body experience. I kept thinking, am I really here?! Haha… I kept a safe distance but he was pretty close by, with more below. The whole dive was unforgettable.

How amazing to see this giant shark down in the Blue Hole. You are brave Lily!

Anxiously awaiting the book.
