Underwater Photography

This a common setup for underwater photographers

Our talk about underwater was very interesting and made me what to do underwater photography really bad. I learnt alot about diving and what you need to dive and get the best photos. We learnt alot about deep diving and how the red spectrum gets cut out to just green and blue when diving deep in water. Every metre of water in front of the lens either way cuts out more of the red side of the spectrum. When diving deep you must use your lighting to get and colour in anything and it must be as far away from the lens to not get the specs of water in the image as little white dots. Also it is best to either use a macro or wide angle lens when doing underwater photography because you want to minimise the amount of water between the lens and your subject.

Great talk and very interesting
