Comments on: The Big Blue http://timothyallen.blogs.bbcearth.com/2009/10/29/the-big-blue/ Behind the scenes blog of BBC Human Planet's photographer, Timothy Allen Wed, 10 Mar 2010 18:53:06 +0000 http://wordpress.com/ hourly 1 By: Timothy http://timothyallen.blogs.bbcearth.com/2009/10/29/the-big-blue/comment-page-1/#comment-3221 Timothy Tue, 02 Feb 2010 11:28:50 +0000 http://timothyallen.blogs.bbcearth.com/?p=2794#comment-3221 Thanks for the compliment. It's worth mentioning though, that many of the places that we visit for Human Planet are quite accessible if you want to experience them for yourself. You don't have to be that intrepid, really. In fact, I have a friend who is backpacking right now in the Philippines where this story was shot. He's having an amazing time. Thanks for the compliment.

I like your site. It's a great site for travelers. I was wondering if you wanted to do a link exchange with my site. We are a new site trying to spread the word so we can build a useful vacation website for all. Please let me know if this is possible. Sincerely, Jason How’s it going?

The housing is made by Ikelite. I have an 8" dome port attachment with it using a Canon 16-35 f2.8 Mark I lens. The dome is huge and therefore makes it very easy to shoot those half in, half out of the water images. I've been shooting down as deep as 40 metres and have had no problems with this housing. Would definitely recommend it for the money. Yes, I’m using the 5D Mark II. The housing is made by Ikelite. I have an 8″ dome port attachment with it using a Canon 16-35 f2.8 Mark I lens.

I like the shapes the flippers make along with the legs of the divers as well as the netting and how it takes up half the image. The title suits this image as well.

For now I am just off to Argentina to soak in the cultural experience and of course some hiking in the Northern forests. There is this "thing"in the blogworld called the Kreativ award, and I just nominated you for it. Cannot wait to see your photos of the mountains in Mongolia as this is where i really want to go next.
