Hello dear Steemian friends! Welcome to the 10th episode of:

#OneBreathOnePhoto

As some of you may know, two of the things that I'm deeply passionate about besides travelling, is Freediving and Photography. Freediving is a practice of diving underwater without a tank or any other breathing apparatus, gliding through the watery abyss on a single breath of air with nothing but you and nature.

My aim for #onebreathonephoto is to showcase the beauty of this sport and the beauty of the ocean, as well as to brighten up your day by sharing some of my favourite photos taken over the years.

ONE photo at a time, of ONE moment in time, on ONE breath of air


Episode #10: Underwater Symphony

Watching these guys swim was like watching a live orchestra. The fishes, the dolphin, and humans danced around in perfect harmony. It sounded beautiful too.

Thank you for the support lighteye, much appreciated!

You can dive deep, I remember a friend from the island could dive twice as deep as I could about 50 feet down, free swim.

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

I still have a long way to call myself a deep diver but I think I can dive enough to have fun with these guys :)

Thanks guys!

Congrats for your photo, this is so beautiful! I was also thinking of starting Freediving . Any tips for a begineer? :)

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Thanks @adriancazacu, yes Im so happy to hear that you are interested in trying! There are tonnes of youtube vids out there so you can even start there, but im pretty sure you will be able to find a freediving course near you to learn the basics and the safety aspects first and foremost before venturing out on your own journey into this interesting world. AIDA & SSI are popular and reputable for taking the course :) And lastly you will hear this a lot, but the best tip is to 'never dive alone'. Looking forward to your progress!

Wonderful shot, I love the dolphin in it. :)

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Thanks as always @rockjon! dolphins are so super awesome! 🐬

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

They definitely are. I believe there are a couple cultures out there that believe they are lucky.

Dolphin and fish - this is amazing! Do you have photos of whales as well?
Up and resteemed.

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Thank you Kalemandra, yes i do have more photos of the whales, which I was thinking to upload on wednesdays to celebrate the weekly 'hump'day :)

oh wow! will follow you to see more! you're probably the only one doing his sport in steemit :)

Thank you immorojas, your follow is much appreciated! And since Philippines is an awesome place for diving, you should totally give it a go :)

I will once i've learnt to swim..i can only float.
Have you done it in the Philippines? Where can ypu recommend for my friends abroad to go to??

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Oh my i think there are heaps of hidden gems in the thousands of islands that make up the country! I have been to Panglao Island in Cebu, beautiful clear blue waters, and deep water just from shore making it a perfect haven for freedivers. This is actually where they host an annual freediving competition, and it's getting more and more popular these days with ever increasing tourism :)

Hmmm..i will mention Panglao thanks. Ever been to Dumaguete?

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

No i have not, but i just googled a little about it, looks awesome <3

Apparently. Siargao is surfing, am not so sure with diving.

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Thank you yulchata, yes indeed it is a beautiful world down there, and I hope you could get to see it one day with your own eyes too! Thank you for the support :)

Wonderful shot @kuenok, what was your camera for this photo? It's very good that you left links to the other parts of your series, cause all of them deserve to be seen. Upvoted, resteemed & DPS.

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Thanks again @photo-trail, the camera i used was the Sony A7RM2 using the Aquatech-imaging solution Housing. Very much appreciating your support :)

You are welcome @kuenok. Please edit your post and insert this info with the exposure data under your photo. And don't forget the most important -- lens you've used! Is it the same one you used for this photo?

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Will do, Yes it's the same lens, I generally use just this for uw :)

What an amazing experience!!! I love following these one breath photos.

Thank you for the support @lundsten! I swear I can almost hear some sounds when looking at it, hence the title :) I am glad you find the moment magical as well!
