Someone needs to fly a drone over you while you do that or to see the fish..

Hi, I am currently working on the development of a new television series for Discovery. We would be interested in including an extract of the above video in our programme and I wonder if you can tell me whether this might be possible? Check your inbox for details, thanks!

For anyone that hasn't seen this it's amazing. The best part is observing all of the fish going to and fro at various depths. Every now and then you see a big one and it looks like a spaceship or something! I see this all the time in the summer on our boat where I live, also swimming in it is amazing. Great stuff.

I thought bioluminescence was caused by phytoplankton? Unless that's what you mean

Get out of there, that's kaiju blue!

Kay Vogt - 10 years ago

It's happening now

Tim King - 10 years ago

Usually around late September - keep your eyes open and check the water reports...definitely worth seeing!

hey there - I was using the canon 5d mk ii with a 24mm 1.4 lens at 1.4, ISO 12,800. Hope this helps!

Tim King - 11 years ago

unfortunately no, there is no way to predict when or if it will happen. it's just all of the sudden visible as red tide/water during the day, and then you can expect to see it that night

It's bioluminescent flagellates that come in every year for a short 2 week period. This was the strongest effect we have seen of it for a long time, usually isn't this vibrant - was definitely cool to see!

MOLSONFOUR - 11 years ago

Wow! what causes that!? thats amazingggg

silverdream26 - 11 years ago

This is amazing, seriously beautiful, and thank you for trying to show us how bright the water could go with the harder paddling.

no, when i came to the shelter and asked about my dog they said she had been adopted and showed me the records. she was indeed adopted. :)

ducky51786 - 11 years ago

or euthanized?

jeyonce knowles - 11 years ago

aha this reminds me of when i was 10, if i couldnt sleep & it was like 3 am i'd sneak out and splash my feet in the pool, knock on my friends windows to scare them (all the kids at my school lived in my neighborhood), etc. one time i found a dog out, i fed it some food and let it sleep in the garage until the next morning when i pretended to "find" it and took it to the animal shelter. i think she was adopted. :)

Tim King - 11 years ago

i'm thinking i'm gonna head down to puerto rico pretty soon here to check out the bioluminescent bay they have there

Tim King - 11 years ago

YES! that would have been a better title to the video

Tim King - 11 years ago

it was truly unreal. felt like i was in a dream or on drugs

predator is one of my favorite movies of all time.

Tim King - 11 years ago

we saw some seals jumping around that were pretty cool - was really a trip to see!

Tim King - 11 years ago

that would be off the hook.

Tim King - 11 years ago

not sure what movie you're talking about, but this would probably be the most colorful way to die ever. wouldn't mind it if this were my "way out"

Tim King - 11 years ago

I actually found out about it just a few days prior - if I had known before, it would have been on my bucketlist

Tim King - 11 years ago

haha people were making fun of my other video I have on here of the northern lights - said i sounded like that guy

Tim King - 11 years ago

yeah i was pushing it to the max! wanted to get those streaks to show up as bright as possible! :) But agreed - I think everyone could use a little more kayaking in their life

Tim King - 11 years ago

Honestly, just used the Canon camera strap, wrapped it around my neck twice and tried to stick my chest out while paddling

Tim King - 11 years ago

I think the mk ii was 6400 and then h1 h2, this was shot at h2. I just got the mk iii last week and WOW! Can't wait to re-make this in Puerto Rico's bioluminescent bay & take it out in Alaska for some northern lights action. Not sure I'll ever get a chance like I had in Sweden though.

Tim King - 11 years ago

haha i thought about putting "derezzed" as a soundtrack to this matter-of-fact!
