Exploring the Forgotten Islands Above and Below the Banda Sea aboard the Arenui
The Forgotten Islands in the Banda Sea, within the 'Ring of Fire', are all part of the heart of Indonesia's expansive island archipelago. It's the shimmering jewel of the world's oceans. The sapphire waters are cradled by volcanic islands steeped in history, and alive with some of the most vibrant marine life on Earth. Thinly populated with cultures reminiscent of days gone by. Diving into its watery depths is like plunging into another world; a kaleidoscope of color, of vibrant, lush, hard and soft corals. Strange sea life that astounds and inspires any imagination.
Here we are on the Arenui, a unique and traditional Indonesian style 'phinisi', “Boutique Liveaboard”, with five star food,...

Thanks to 'Cultural Cuba.com', we packed seven days of touring into three days and nights...wow! It was totally different than our expectations. We toured mostly old Havana with its fifties and sixties charm stuck in a time lock. We found the Cuban people very warm, gracious, resourceful, hard working and proud. The city itself was an interesting dichotomy of old architecture and ruble. We enjo...

Immediate Update!...the Mexican Government has currently suspended all operations, including cage diving, in the waters of Guadalupe Island indefinitely. Among other things, eco-tourism provides understanding and educates the public about these incredible animals, but it also adds additional eyes to help protect these endangered sharks from illegal fishing and shark finning. Operations 'may' be...

Hi Amie...Thank you! This is Blane. I've always enjoyed adventure and out of the way 'ditch the crowd' type exploration. Steph is all in now and a total convert. You should watch her swim with sharks!!!
What a cool experience
Sign me up
So true...thank you!
Gorgeous presentation. The color saturation is awesome
Your kind comment is appreciated very much. Thank you!
Very cool. I like it when you add voice over!. Needs a bit of ducking, though...
Thank you Rodrigo! Voice over ducking noted and I agree. I always appreciate your critiques.
You deserve more subscribes and likes
Thank you. I appreciate your nice comment.
Loved the tempo of this.
Great footage...loved the manta Sombreo at the Boiler!!!
Nice live aboard!
Yes it was. Nicest one I've been on!
What a place!
Loved it!
Galapagos, one of the three best dive locations in the Pacific! Some great footage
Totally amazing. I've been there and its an great experience.
Blane, this is so incredible! Thank you for your gift and talent.
Thanks Amanda. You both were great subject material. We really enjoyed diving with you both. Hope to do it again soon. Tell the Doc hello🤣
Blane, your cinematography and story telling of the moment is amazing!! Great work!
So glad you liked it!
Congratulations on getting to the finals at Neum!
This needs more views
Thank you...I appreciate the comment. It was a great career. I originally posted it on Vimeo where it was well received (48K views). The RUclips algorithm and platform doesn't seem to promote it as much.🤷♂
you done good job
Thank you! Glad you liked it. A short promotional film for a friend's Dive Shop.
Wow! So nice, i wish to face them too underwater. Its me sir, david from bandos😊
Thank you David. Glad you enjoyed it. There are others that I'm sure you'd enjoy too. I encourage you to stick with your diving and make it what you want it to be.
Love it
Lets Go Lance McCainn!
This looks awesome! Love the ocean and want to study marine biology to understand the ocean and how to preserve it for future generations ❤️
Sheilawoodz, thank you for your comment! Yes, marine biology is a noble pursuit, and diving compliments it nicely. It'll take you on some amazing adventures.
"3:11" damn Blane what a shot!!!!
One of natures lucky moments. Thank you for noticing. That particular whale shark was huge; it's one of my favorite shots.
Looks like an amazing time! Amy and I are looking forward to our next dive with y'all!!!
Andrew! Thanks for watching. Looking forward to our next dive too. We'll have to get the two of you on film soon! Tell Amy hello.

Thank you for your comment. I'm pleased you liked my film!
.good.afternun.city.castro
Great footage and dramatic, but tasteful muisc. Thank you for sharing your advaentures, Jardines de la Reina looks like an stunningly beautiful place.
Rafael, Thank you, Im glad you liked it. Cuba presents some challenges, but the Jardines de la Reina is, in my opinion, the best 'Caribbean' diving there is for sharks and goliath grouper and probably one of the few spots you can actually swim with crocs! Stay wet, stay happy!!!
As usual, some very nice shots, and very clever editing. The result is entertaining, and consistently enjoyable!. The only remaining question - how the heck do you get in the water with those things to film them??? I wouldn't!!! and I am very committed to my films, but there is a line I am not willing to cross! Sharks yes!, crocodiles, no!
Thank you AquaticRod! Your comments are always thoughtful, constructive, and appreciated. I know right; getting into the water with a large, wild, small brained lizard! My desire for 'the shot' overcame my common sense (is the only way I can explain it). Like any wild animal, there are different individual personalities within the species population habits and traits. This particular croc is known to be somewhat subdued, but it still took some lengthy observation, and planning on my part to get up the nerve...
@@BlaneHenderson I thought you were going to say that you paid someone to do it for you! 🤣
Shark is The King❤❤❤❤ if the Ocean
The Caribbean... the way it used to be!
Indeed...lush and full of life! Took your advice and updated computer so that I can edit 4k. I think it made a difference. Thank you!
Yes, I noticed. I have another little comment. I am sure you can push the colors harder. At the moment it is a bit desaturated. All great if you like the vintage feel, but sometimes it is nice when the colors pop.
Fantastic storytelling, as usual!
Thank you A-Rod. I appreciate the comment.
This is such an amazing short film, I cannot believe it does not have more views! RUclips is definitely not a fair place...
Thank you A-Rod for taking the time to watch it! Vimeo is my platform of choice, but I'm slowly posting some of my films to RUclips for more exposure. Yes indeed, RUclips's search algorithm is so much different than Vimeo's classic search engine. Your comment is very much appreciated. I look forward to more of your work too!
Really good footage of these predatory killer machines.very brave to go down there and do that
Thank you!
Bjotifol vidjo tank yu😮❤❤
Thank you!
Nice video, it’s nice to find out that God’s word is true, if a day is like a thousand years than that’s the only way the world could be hundreds of thousands of years old. Don
Thank you Cindy. If you liked this film then you'll certainly love soon to be released 'Socorro Untamed'...besides the majestic animals, the drone footage reveals some of Gods astounding and incredible artwork ❤
As a fellow underwater film-maker, I am very impressed by how tastefully done this video is. The shots are great, the editing is clever, the story is engaging, colors are nice. Made me want to go to Guadalupe! Wish it was uploaded in 4k, though.
Thank you A-Rod, I appreciate the comment and I'm very pleased you liked it.4k when the hardware gets updated
Some really good footage Blane!
Very cool video
I am proud to be retired from The Company after 25 years. My father started with AA as a Fleet Service Clerk in 1937 loading mail on the ramp. Retired as a Senior Flight Dispatcher after 50 years. Then I picked up the gauntlet. Yours was a great career, Captain.
Tim, You should be proud and congratulations on your retirement too! It's the people that I worked with, trusted and relied upon, like yourself and your father that I miss the most about the job. The professionalism of every one of you made my job so easy. Thank you
Very nicely done. Thank you. From someone who would have loved to live that dream ;)
I was truly fortunate. Thank you for your kind words and taking the time to respond.
