Pretty cool stuff from Venezuela. I wish there was more freshwater stuff in underwater photography. I would love to do some freshwater wildlife trips like the one Amos Nachum just posted on article about in Brazil. Click here for the video

I did that with my wife Antonella almost fifteen years ago - it was a wild place. We snorkelled in the Canaima lagoons with piranas and anacondas and even climbed up to the top pf Mount Roraira, the "Lost World" - a 100 km trip on foot in four days. After six trips there we even published a huge photographic coffee-table book titled "The Jaguard and the Orchid". Venezuela is one of the most incredibly beautiful and scenic places in the world - sadly exploring it off the beaten track by yourself is not really safe nowadays.
