Hey all,

here is my first attempt at a mini movie. This is from a trip up north with the Abking and his family in early August. Eric's two cousins were on their maiden dive for abs and I thought I'd take you all along for the ride. Hope you enjoy it. Had fun making it. Having messed around with the software to do this, I have a new appreciation for Abking's videos and just how much work goes into the making of one.

Thanks for all the positive feedback. Enjoyed sharing the tale with an audience of fellow divers/wantermen. If anyone has advice/critique on how to do this better, or what you thought worked and didn't, let me know.
