What a gorgeous video of scuba diving in the Red Sea. This video really has it all, starting from a brief surface shot before plunging underwater for about 10 minutes of brilliant color and interesting fish and critters. There's a few macro creatures, an octopus, lion fish, nudibranch and a really unusual flat-headed fish in the sand. But the last two minutes are highlights for me - a couple turtles meet under water, then the camera follows one very closely and respectfully; and at the end, a close and peaceful encounter with a feeding dugong. We get to see the dugong's eye, watch it surface, and follow it swimming from behind. Wonderfully shot, edited and scored scuba video!
