If anyone would like to view a shot video clip of a dive we made last Summer in Bonaire, just go to our little Bonaire web site at http://www.zaptek.com/bonaire and click on the "Click To Download & Play" link to launch it.

If you have the latest and greatest Windows media player and are using MS Explorer you should be able to play the video. It's about only about 2 minutes long and was made at "The Lake" last July. It's nothing fancy, but its Bonaire diving!

Dennis, could not see it well on my download, but I could make out what looked like a turtle at one point - yes??? Boy, I wish I could get back to Bonaire soon. I miss it !!!

Yep, there was a turtle in there among other things.

It's a small compressed video, so the picture quality is not great, but its ok and plays pretty smooth if you have a broadband Internet connection and have your video resolution set at 16 million colors or better. Once you play it thru once, it seems to work much better for subsequent viewings.

hi dennis - i really enjoyed your video on my new laptop. Everything was crystal clear. You sure found a lot of critters. Did you shoot the entire video during one dive or did you splice together several dives from the lake?
i also checked out the still photos from '98 & '01. Very beautiful. look forward to seeing your '02 production.

Mimi,
Glad you liked it and the rest of the stuff. It ain't much, but something I put together for fun.

That video was made on just a single dive at "The Lake" last summer. The original is about 15 minutes long, so I dumped it to my PC and edited it down to about 2 minutes and then added the background music track.
