I could listen to your storytelling for hours! And with Jason's photography skills, you guy should make full-length movies... maybe about conservation? Loved this video! Well done!!!
OK, I'm done! Because of Covid and a knee surgery in January; I had plenty time to watch all of your boad-videos. Beside the overwhelming beautiful edited content of the videos and informative things for sailors (or just ppl that love to watch such stuff), I find myself really impressed bacause you always find the time to help! Helping out Cpt Marc to get his medicine, rescued the bat, collecting plastic as often as you can, rescued the small Kitty and on and on..... This is not click bait! You have to life that way, you have to have the heart on the right place! Talking about cats. I often find myself checking the backround of the boat for Cleo & Singa if they eventually stroll around and this one episode was just a bad dream. MIss them... Guys, it was never so easy to like videos. You've got a new subscriber ;-) Have always a hand ull of water under the keel (German saying)
Can we please take a moment to appreciate the time and effort involved in the cinematography? They took the time and effort to launch the drone just to capture 12 seconds of them exiting the cave.
You are so right, their videos are frequently such good value and expertly filmed. Believe me I am often wondering how they got a particular shot. They are an effective team that's for sure. Huge thanks to them :)
The Wynns are the coolest! 💘💘 You open eyes and hearts with your great adventures.😍 Thanks for sharing your beautiful life together and taking us to places we've never drempt of. 😘
As I watch your videos in chronological order, I continue to be amazed at the beauty of your photography and videography. I know a little of what it takes to set up your shots, especially the forethought required to fly the drone, but wow, your cinematography is stunning-both above and below the surface. Nikki, way to go on the choreographed posing in the cave. Stunning!! And, I am thoroughly enjoying your story telling, even knowing that I’m watching 2-year-old videos. I am so caught up in your story. Well done! Well DONE!
Welcome back. You are not alone as everyday life has it's own issues that can create a partial or total roadblock to normal life. I these times, there is only the normal you create for yourself. I love to dream and explore everyday. Sometimes it is just sitting in total silence listening to my pool waterfall and dreaming of being elsewhere. You showed today that you are mere mortals. Keep up the great work, and more importantly measure your success on a bell curve as normal life as we knew it may never return to "our" normal. Thanks for your life giving inspiration and just remember, one day, just one at a time...
I've been in a creative and life rut lately. Your shot at 9:50 is such an inspirational Metaphor. So often we are stuck and feel like we’re drowning. Yet as we swim up in the mess, we see what looks like a ceiling. But once we push through that, there’s daylight and air above. We might not know exactly what’s on the other side, but we need to push through it anyway. Thanks for creating this piece this week. Love you two.
Let me just say: You guys are amazing. At first I was a little concerned for you. It is Cyclone Season where you are, and after not hearing anything last week...well...I was worried. Yesterday, with a fresh post, I was relieved to know you are well...just drained a bit. I cannot imagine what it must take to do all you do to keep us entertained, amused, even awe-struck by your surroundings. I wish you well in all things, at all times. Bless you.
Gorgeous cave and gorgeous cinematography/photography! As we say in Hawaii, "Hana hou! Hana hou!" We say something else about our sea cliff caves, "no go swim in deya, o' you go munch!" Our caves (at least on Kauai) are often visited by tiger sharks, and they can be quite large on the North Shore. So when Nikki began talking about swimming in the cave I was shaking my head, "uh uh, don't do it!" But I'm glad it turned out just fine - and the photos! No ka oi (the best)! You guys are fearless adventurers! Thanks for taking all of us along with you. 😃 Hope you keep on keepin on!
Hello Wynns from Texas! I'm so envious of you two and The Zatara crew for being able to do what I've always wanted to do myself. I have been a scuba diver since i was 4,yup my dad was nuts..") But at that age the water and boats were my Home on a lake not the Sea.But I always hung out with The Inland Divers Association and watched their home movies from dives around the world. Now I get to watch yours! Yeehaw! I do design sailing Trimarans for fun,even have my best one as my photo on my face book page,but it needs to be finished out. Any way great vids and pics love and Peace be safe. Robert S.
GOOD EPISODE! I believe that it was Brian on SV Delos who said that "It's not all unicorns and rainbows!" and that sailing life has a LOT of work to it! So it is good to see the reality of it. BUT! I so like episodes like this. Sure, there is work, there is frustration and heartache. That's life. But I don't want to see that all the time when I watch a sailing channel. Say... 25% or so? That would be enough. Obviously if you need to spend many weeks on the hard doing boat repairs... that is what you are doing! But out cruising or at anchor I really want to see the fun stuff. I hope that you give us several more like this one before anything more about NOT unicorns! Thank you both for this one and for the glorious photos too! Yes, Nikki, that one of you turned upside down is a great ART shot! Love it! I won't be buying one but someone will I am sure. Keeping going, you two. You give so many of us just a bit of joy!
I just spent two days kayaking in a swamp with alligators, but you could not pay me to go into that cave! And really really no way am I getting in the water! Beautiful video though, thanks!
Thanks so much for the video. It brought back such wonderful memory of our time when we visited Swallows Cave. It was a bright sunny day and the sunlight reflected off the water sending blue streams of light up on the walls. It was and is a truly beautiful place. Well done you captured it well and the photo idea was brilliant.
You two already plan, shoot and edit the best video on CZcams, in my opinion...always professional quality, and this one is even more spectacular. All of the little touches, like the drone above the cave, using the existing lighting, the silhouettes, the colors...breathtaking. Thank you! -Don
Try Sailing Uma. Look back to their Step 217 and then also see their "How we Filmed Step #217" There are many good channels done by people who were rank amateurs at the beginning and have come so far! I follow many sailing channels so that it where the bulk of that transition that I see comes from. But I also follow MANY Science channels. These have all so much improved over the 15 years or so that many have been on YT. Obviously many of them have benefited from the experience of adding professional staff. But to just start a channel and then get picked up or incorporated by a professional says a lot about what they were doing initially. I like GwtW, but I wouldn't say they were the best.
Underwater or above, the Cathedrals of nature are more captivating than anything we can imagine or build with our hands. More than the silhouettes, love it when you wax poetic - capturing the experience in just a sentence or two... And mystical it was - the solid cave, liquid water, filtered light and movement of undersea life was perfection unparalleled. The other fish probably went somewhere else to hide from the pandemic, or were told the borders are closed... :) All the best and stay safe!
Wonderful video guys. A little slower, reflective, intimate, great soundtrack, and to go to the trouble of getting the drone shot, again with perfect music, just exceptional cinematography. Loved the stills too. One of my favorite videos from you two. Thanks and be well.
Loved the video, what an interesting place but the photos were spectacular. I know what you mean about the the times we lose our mojo during this pandemic. My family refers to it as “falling down the rabbit hole”. Thanks for the lift!
Great exploration of your watery world and artistic process. Back here in my " real world" of NY about half the people I know are vaccinated. and Julie and I have gotten the first shot and will be getting the second shot in another week. There is a real palpable sense that we are going to move on, into the future, whatever that is. And a feeling that we have been through or are almost through something huge. I hope that feeling spreads across the country and across the Pacific Ocean to you both.
The photography and subject matter whether it is still, moving, or drone shots your level of professionalism leaves me smiling and made my day a better place to be. Thank you
Yet another reason why I (and your other fans seem to) love you two! Life is hard, sometimes boring, but a very few of us get to live the dream. Thanks for sharing yours!
Nikki always reminds me of a Mermaid 🧜♀️, she always looks very grateful underwater. I love the reflection photos. Time is vist the Wynns swag shop😉. Jason is a talented photographer.
I'm just so glad you guys didn't have to go to NZ and spend $50k in repairs, OZ and quarantine for 2 wks, or go home via the gauntlet of the Canal! You'll eventually let us know how you got insurance, but for now... Tonga is just such a beautiful, peaceful place to keep exploring, and Jason's professional photography REVEAL explains a lot why your videos are PBS-worthy. I really wish I could help out, but am still trying to receive unemployment after a whole YEAR of trying. Keep safe and healthy guys!
Jason is an amazing photographer- simply amazing. We ‘see’ Niki and compliment her in the photos, but it is Jason taking them and transporting us. Great video / great art.
Your honesty is appreciated. Many if not most are encountering the same types of mental issues you're going through. I'm retired therefore better than most who are still tied to a job and all the hoopla involved with working remotely, ZOOM calls and trying to stay mentally engaged while many are dealing with children, reduced pay and throw in the COVID cloud hovering overhead. I'm lucking to have a daily routine that stops me from dwelling too much on what's happening in the world though I do stay pretty well informed. It's bad enough just going to the gym or grocery store and having to deal with road rage between people/cars or just the rudeness that's escalated. Way back in my head, I wonder when or if we'll ever go back to "the way it was". Every year, I would throw a backpack on my back, travel the rails and stay in hostels throughout Europe for 6 weeks but haven't done it in two years. When I start to think about it, I fell like I'm suffocating. I play racquetball 5 morning/week with a leading nationally well-known COVID doctor who states he seeing an increase in COVID cases in all four hospitals he owns. I work on focusing on the here and now and count myself luckier than most but still.....I wonder when we'll go back to the "way it was"...if ever.
My God! Your underwater videos and still shots keep getting better and better. Makes me want to cry on how serene and beautiful this video was. Then last week with your mirror image photos!!!!! Just spectacular! Your surfing videos were top notch too. Just love your channel. Thank you for letting me live vicariously through your lives.
Absolutely stunning. And I'm sure you're right that the video doesn't do the beauty of it justice. I'm certain that I speak for many when I say your channel is an inspiration, a lovely spot to be on a Sunday morning with everything that's going on in the world today. You always leave us looking forward to the next adventure. Even when you were stuck on land. 💖
I have to tell you. I used to watch you when you were RVing and loved your videos, but then, when you went on a boat, I dropped off. I don’t like boats, I feed the fish every time, and so I moved on. For some reason, one of your videos showed up in my feed. Oh my gosh, what a stupid move on my part! I still don’t like boats, but I have been binge watching your breathtakingly beautiful videos. Thank you for sharing a part of the world that I never expect to see in person. Amazing!
Wonderful video, was having a rough morning, but watched this and it was so calming, so refreshing. Between the images caught, the music choices to the soft voice of Nikki describing the underwater experience. Took me back to all the golden times of my surfing/snorkeling days of long ago. Wishing I could but unable to due to health. I was still, in a way, able to feel it all again through this and other videos like it. Your pics turned out amazing. Thank you once again for sharing this.
Guys be inspired and joyful you are an inspiration to everyone that watches I enjoy every video you post I know that sometimes you guys get lonely but the message you spread thru your video is awesome love you guy’s 😊continue being you.
Photos were beautiful, My passion is Photography...... I like your choice . Amazing place , Colorado is great but Wow can’t imagine being surrounded by so much beauty and not be taking hundreds of shots
I have been watching you guys for many years (started with RVing) for so many reasons. As a photog, the big one is the photography. This one is your best photography both video and stills. Jason is killing it!!
Guys, I've followed you both for the past decade, on land and water. This video expresses your 'curiosity' naturally. Caves, remote circumstances, the joy of exploring is soooo rewarding! Small steps are the beginning, safely.
As we sit here in Fort Lauderdale in a bit of frump as we wait for ‘our’ perfect boat and start our full-time live-aboard adventures, this was a perfect video to help raise our spirits. I’m also a photographer and since the beginning of the pandemic I have pretty much shut down creatively, so again this video was a bright spot in our lives, helping to inspire and give hope for future ventures when we eventually find ourselves where we are so looking forward to being. Thank you Nikki and Jason. BTW, love your upside down cave shot.
Does anyone smile at the voice overs now, knowing that Nikki is surrounded by pillows talking into the mic. It just makes everything so much more real... regular people, using regular items, in irregular ways with fantastic results.
All I can say is wow! Thank you for thinking outside the box this week. I am definitely purchasing that picture. It was my favorite when I first saw it in the video.
This seemed like a pre covid video. Except the absence of people this just felt like finally the lines are free and you can explore. I LOVED this so much. Thank You!
Awesome experience... It is really meaningful to take time to pause and remember what life is all about and what gives life purpose. Going on a mission that is fueled by WONDER and curiosity often has the remarkable ability to re-calibrate life's meaning and ignite inspiration. Awesome mission that definitely inspired beautiful photography!!
Stunning!!!! Why wouldn't Jason sell his photography!!! Y'all could even take some of his most inspirational photos with quotes of your own and create a blank journal. Many of us journal these days and having your photos to look at as we ponder our thoughts would be nice. I may have to rewatch this one again. Btw.. the music was spot on. ♥️
Yet another speck on this planet I had heard almost nothing about, but thanks to your misfortune of being stuck there we get to see more amazing and colourful bits of nature!! Hopefully for you the traveling part of this adventure gets to resume very soon! As always, thanks for sharing and taking us along🤿⛵️🏝🇨🇦
If ever you took a great photo of your environment, these were them! Fantastic cave with absolutely crystal clear waters! Loved that you caught sight of that octopus! As for selling some of the prints, these will literally fly off of the shelf! What truly makes these is you Nikki. Your striking figure silhouette with the cave opening in the background accentuates your beautiful and graceful physique!
For someone in a “rut” you’ve managed to knock it out of the park. The videography, stills, writing and narration were simply superb. And Nikki, as usual, your tone, is as pleasing to the ear as any Sir David Attenborough’s narrations. Awesome to see you two. Be safe. A quick visit to the tip jar hopefully will save me a seat for another adventure next week.
Super cool photos & way to get back your creative flow. I’d love a screensaver of your photos. Maybe a series? I’ll put in on my work computer to inspire me to plan my own adventure. Thanks for letting me live vicariously even if it’s just for 15mins. I’ve just worked all weekend & needed a mind holiday.

Your videos do two things for me. 1. Give me a break from my day and an appreciation for the beauty of the world. 2. Confirm that I need to get out from behind the desk and explore this world why I have time. Amazing video. Thank you.
Beautiful scenery and photography. I think you should make photographs part of your regular offerings. I'll buy anything with Nikki in it! Love everything you two do.
I could listen to your storytelling for hours! And with Jason's photography skills, you guy should make full-length movies... maybe about conservation? Loved this video! Well done!!!
OK, I'm done! Because of Covid and a knee surgery in January; I had plenty time to watch all of your boad-videos.

I wasn't thinking creepy until it was mentioned.. Art photos rock! The falling photo is a keeper!!
my sunday morning is now complete.....raining outside.....but the video makes it easier to take the rain....thank you
The Wynns are the coolest! 💘💘 You open eyes and hearts with your great adventures.😍 Thanks for sharing your beautiful life together and taking us to places we've never drempt of. 😘
You should be a writer...you speak with such fluid imagery that it would be incredibly enjoyable to read about your experiences in the last decade.
As I watch your videos in chronological order, I continue to be amazed at the beauty of your photography and videography. I know a little of what it takes to set up your shots, especially the forethought required to fly the drone, but wow, your cinematography is stunning-both above and below the surface.

More specifically, Pacific swallows (Hirundo tahitica) live in that cave. What a gorgeous sight. Mother Nature's art is the best kind of art
Thank you, supreme leader.
Welcome back. You are not alone as everyday life has it's own issues that can create a partial or total roadblock to normal life. I these times, there is only the normal you create for yourself.

Before I saw your great photos that you selected. I was also amazed @ 7:27 , it reminds me how small we really are. Great job guys.
So beautiful thank you two for showing us at home what 99.0/0 will never see thank you so much love you two kids god bless you stay safe .
That cave looked amazing. Thank you for showing it to us all. The video and the photos taken were tops. You both do a superb job.
Let me just say: You guys are amazing. At first I was a little concerned for you. It is Cyclone Season where you are, and after not hearing anything last week...well...I was worried. Yesterday, with a fresh post, I was relieved to know you are well...just drained a bit. I cannot imagine what it must take to do all you do to keep us entertained, amused, even awe-struck by your surroundings. I wish you well in all things, at all times. Bless you.
Gorgeous cave and gorgeous cinematography/photography! As we say in Hawaii, "Hana hou! Hana hou!"
We say something else about our sea cliff caves, "no go swim in deya, o' you go munch!" Our caves (at least on Kauai) are often visited by tiger sharks, and they can be quite large on the North Shore. So when Nikki began talking about swimming in the cave I was shaking my head, "uh uh, don't do it!" But I'm glad it turned out just fine - and the photos! No ka oi (the best)!
You guys are fearless adventurers! Thanks for taking all of us along with you. 😃 Hope you keep on keepin on!
Love what you guys do! This was a really amazing video and the result is stunning.
Hello Wynns from Texas! I'm so envious of you two and The Zatara crew for being able to do what I've always wanted to do myself. I have been a scuba diver since i was 4,yup my dad was nuts..") But at that age the water and boats were my Home on a lake not the Sea.But I always hung out with The Inland Divers Association and watched their home movies from dives around the world. Now I get to watch yours! Yeehaw! I do design sailing Trimarans for fun,even have my best one as my photo on my face book page,but it needs to be finished out. Any way great vids and pics love and Peace be safe. Robert S.

GOOD EPISODE!
I believe that it was Brian on SV Delos who said that "It's not all unicorns and rainbows!" and that sailing life has a LOT of work to it! So it is good to see the reality of it. BUT! I so like episodes like this. Sure, there is work, there is frustration and heartache. That's life. But I don't want to see that all the time when I watch a sailing channel. Say... 25% or so? That would be enough. Obviously if you need to spend many weeks on the hard doing boat repairs... that is what you are doing! But out cruising or at anchor I really want to see the fun stuff.
I hope that you give us several more like this one before anything more about NOT unicorns!
Thank you both for this one and for the glorious photos too! Yes, Nikki, that one of you turned upside down is a great ART shot! Love it!
I won't be buying one but someone will I am sure. Keeping going, you two. You give so many of us just a bit of joy!
I just spent two days kayaking in a swamp with alligators, but you could not pay me to go into that cave! And really really no way am I getting in the water!
Beautiful video though, thanks!
Thank You for sharing. What a beautiful location. Hang in there you two. Normal life is just around the corner...
A grand video. I appreciate your candidness and honesty. Very wonderful pictures and thanks for sharing.
Gorgeous captures in the cave! Thanks for sharing them with us! Love from Texas
Just ordered a print looking forward to getting it. Always look forward to your video's perfect escape from wet cold Ireland.
Thanks so much for the video. It brought back such wonderful memory of our time when we visited Swallows Cave. It was a bright sunny day and the sunlight reflected off the water sending blue streams of light up on the walls. It was and is a truly beautiful place.

Thanks for my weekly fix! The mojo thing I can relate too, experiencing the same at the moment, 12 months is enough. Hang in there.

Great exploration of your watery world and artistic process.

There is a real palpable sense that we are going to move on, into the future, whatever that is. And a feeling that we have been through or are almost through something huge.

Simply put: freakin’ spectacular ! Mission accomplished indeed👍❤️ Fan From Florida 🌴
Photography is absolutely beautiful. Have followed you both since your RV adventures.
Nikki always reminds me of a Mermaid 🧜♀️, she always looks very grateful underwater.
I love the reflection photos. Time is vist the Wynns swag shop😉.
Jason is a talented photographer.
Truly special, wonderful. Have to watch it again. You are a rival for the best. More caves, if you are inclined.
Catching up with the vlogs!! Congrats on almost 420,000! All your hard work and editing is producing supreme vlogs!! Love you from USA💖⛵💎
What a beautiful, serene location. You hit this one out of the park!! Thank you for sharing......hugs from sunny Arizona 💖😎💖
I'm just so glad you guys didn't have to go to NZ and spend $50k in repairs, OZ and quarantine for 2 wks, or go home via the gauntlet of the Canal!

I found your channel because Andrei Jikh mentioned you guys on a podcast. This is my 1st video of yours. Loved it. Mad love from Sydney Australia
Another great video and I love the idea of putting some of your great shots in your store.
Great shots! I love your storytelling and the thoughtful messages you are putting out there too. Thanks again for taking me away to another place.
Jason is an amazing photographer- simply amazing. We ‘see’ Niki and compliment her in the photos, but it is Jason taking them and transporting us. Great video / great art.
It is unfair; Jasons has the most beautiful meuse.

*All* your videos contain moments of perfect art photography and this is no different. Lovely! 🌺
Love the change in perspective. I was expecting photos of the cave when the video started and came away with a wow....great idea.
Thanks, beautiful scenery! For the record, Jason, Loch Ness takes annual vacations to Kapa late March so you missed him/her by a tad 😉🙏
😝😝
There is not enough stills photography on the sailing channels, so many opportunities lost. I love the underwater silhouettes, thank you for sharing.
FANTASTIC ...
Stay Safe & Fair Winds !
My God! Your underwater videos and still shots keep getting better and better. Makes me want to cry on how serene and beautiful this video was. Then last week with your mirror image photos!!!!! Just spectacular! Your surfing videos were top notch too. Just love your channel. Thank you for letting me live vicariously through your lives.
Wow, thank you! 😍
BEST video yet ! Thanks for letting us join in the adventure !!!!
Absolutely stunning. And I'm sure you're right that the video doesn't do the beauty of it justice. I'm certain that I speak for many when I say your channel is an inspiration, a lovely spot to be on a Sunday morning with everything that's going on in the world today. You always leave us looking forward to the next adventure. Even when you were stuck on land. 💖
Wow !! That was epic !
That was so well done !!
Scary , well filmed !!
Killer !! Awesome content !!!
Love what you guys do !
Photography & Narration was EXCELLENT!
Thank You
I GOT GOOSEBUMPS with those images of you 'suspended' in 'aqua-space' 💓
I have to tell you. I used to watch you when you were RVing and loved your videos, but then, when you went on a boat, I dropped off. I don’t like boats, I feed the fish every time, and so I moved on. For some reason, one of your videos showed up in my feed. Oh my gosh, what a stupid move on my part! I still don’t like boats, but I have been binge watching your breathtakingly beautiful videos. Thank you for sharing a part of the world that I never expect to see in person. Amazing!
Welcome back! Sooo happy you are enjoying the ride!
Amazing cave, thank you for sharing your adventures!
Simply stunning Wynns. Amazing cinematography. Loved it!
Excellent shots!👍🏴
Thank you so very much. Such an awesome video. Reminded me of the Blue Grotto in Italy! Thank you for sharing!
I really enjoyed this, just you guys doing something fun and exploring. Think about other opportunities where you can do this.
Wonderful video, was having a rough morning, but watched this and it was so calming, so refreshing. Between the images caught, the music choices to the soft voice of Nikki describing the underwater experience. Took me back to all the golden times of my surfing/snorkeling days of long ago. Wishing I could but unable to due to health. I was still, in a way, able to feel it all again through this and other videos like it. Your pics turned out amazing. Thank you once again for sharing this.
Incredible stills. Thanks for sharing.
Absolutely awesome footage in the cave. The photos are amazing. Great job.
The photos came out SO beautifully!! 💙
Guys be inspired and joyful you are an inspiration to everyone that watches I enjoy every video you post I know that sometimes you guys get lonely but the message you spread thru your video is awesome love you guy’s 😊continue being you.
Photos were beautiful, My passion is Photography...... I like your choice . Amazing place , Colorado is great but Wow can’t imagine being surrounded by so much beauty and not be taking hundreds of shots
Yay, absolutely stunning! It’s always amazing to push what you can do ( creatively) the beauty’s of Gods creations! It’s crazy!!! 🤗
I have been watching you guys for many years (started with RVing) for so many reasons. As a photog, the big one is the photography. This one is your best photography both video and stills. Jason is killing it!!
Absolutely stunning videography in the cave ... just beautiful! Will definitely be wanting one of those prints ❤️ xx
ah finały normal Sunday! :D thanks! cheers from Warsaw :)
Guys, I've followed you both for the past decade, on land and water. This video expresses your 'curiosity' naturally. Caves, remote circumstances, the joy of exploring is soooo rewarding! Small steps are the beginning, safely.
Such a great video, thanks for sharing this experience! Warm regards, Dean...
Absolutely beautiful! Glad y’all are back this week. Missed you guys. Cheers
As we sit here in Fort Lauderdale in a bit of frump as we wait for ‘our’ perfect boat and start our full-time live-aboard adventures, this was a perfect video to help raise our spirits. I’m also a photographer and since the beginning of the pandemic I have pretty much shut down creatively, so again this video was a bright spot in our lives, helping to inspire and give hope for future ventures when we eventually find ourselves where we are so looking forward to being. Thank you Nikki and Jason. BTW, love your upside down cave shot.
Does anyone smile at the voice overs now, knowing that Nikki is surrounded by pillows talking into the mic. It just makes everything so much more real... regular people, using regular items, in irregular ways with fantastic results.
Anechoic chamber in a pinch. :-)
All I can say is wow! Thank you for thinking outside the box this week. I am definitely purchasing that picture. It was my favorite when I first saw it in the video.
Your energy in the closing scene was so refreshing to see. You too make such an amazing pair. Great work on this
This seemed like a pre covid video. Except the absence of people this just felt like finally the lines are free and you can explore. I LOVED this so much. Thank You!
WoW i don’t think I will ever in my life see a octopus and that one completely vanished. Thank you for doing what you do. Absolutely beautiful
Just ordered one of your prints!!! I was so glad when you said you were going to be selling it as I was like "I would buy that its so good!"
Awesome experience... It is really meaningful to take time to pause and remember what life is all about and what gives life purpose. Going on a mission that is fueled by WONDER and curiosity often has the remarkable ability to re-calibrate life's meaning and ignite inspiration. Awesome mission that definitely inspired beautiful photography!!
My mojo has definitely been feeling like slow-jo lately. Thank you for the inspiration to “mix it up. The photos you all captured are beautiful.
Stunning!!!! Why wouldn't Jason sell his photography!!! Y'all could even take some of his most inspirational photos with quotes of your own and create a blank journal. Many of us journal these days and having your photos to look at as we ponder our thoughts would be nice. I may have to rewatch this one again. Btw.. the music was spot on. ♥️
What a stunningly beautiful artistic piece. Nicky, Jason... you're skills are surreal! One of my favorite videos of yours.
Yet another speck on this planet I had heard almost nothing about, but thanks to your misfortune of being stuck there we get to see more amazing and colourful bits of nature!! Hopefully for you the traveling part of this adventure gets to resume very soon!
As always, thanks for sharing and taking us along🤿⛵️🏝🇨🇦
If ever you took a great photo of your environment, these were them! Fantastic cave with absolutely crystal clear waters! Loved that you caught sight of that octopus! As for selling some of the prints, these will literally fly off of the shelf! What truly makes these is you Nikki. Your striking figure silhouette with the cave opening in the background accentuates your beautiful and graceful physique!
Thank you Nikki for letting us explore our world through you both. Peaceful excursion.😎
Wow, you guy's nailed it with those photo's! They are AMAZING! Nice work!
For someone in a “rut” you’ve managed to knock it out of the park. The videography, stills, writing and narration were simply superb. And Nikki, as usual, your tone, is as pleasing to the ear as any Sir David Attenborough’s narrations. Awesome to see you two. Be safe. A quick visit to the tip jar hopefully will save me a seat for another adventure next week.
More of this!
Absolutely spectacular!

Super cool photos & way to get back your creative flow. I’d love a screensaver of your photos. Maybe a series? I’ll put in on my work computer to inspire me to plan my own adventure. Thanks for letting me live vicariously even if it’s just for 15mins. I’ve just worked all weekend & needed a mind holiday.

Stunning photos. Thank you for sharing your creativity.
Fabulous! 📸 Great collaboration with Nikki as model and Jason behind the lens. It would be a fun shake up for y’all to switch rolls! ☕️
Your underwater shots have been amazing! I love it.
Absolutely stunning! Last Sunday felt incomplete without a video from the wynns
Your videos do two things for me. 1. Give me a break from my day and an appreciation for the beauty of the world. 2. Confirm that I need to get out from behind the desk and explore this world why I have time. Amazing video. Thank you.
Another location for my bucket list
Beautiful scenery and photography. I think you should make photographs part of your regular offerings. I'll buy anything with Nikki in it! Love everything you two do.
