You guys can argue as to whether he is talking about you or not. If not- then good for you.
For every skilled photographer, I have seen 30 who were absolutely unaware.
However, I disagree with this quote:
– and there is another technique you may want to adopt whenever possible:
3. Its doing shots from a position where you can lay down on the sandy bottom while taking care that your fins, knees, elbows or anything else is at least one meter away from any life coral reef cover.
Wow. Coral shouldn't be breathed upon, but all those critters in that sandy bottom (and I am being dead serious, here)... what about that?
A lot of good advice, and if the bad moves don't apply to your techniques, then go out and spread the gospel of buoyancy and care.
As a side note, I believe that Coral protectors should worry more about errosion and run off from seashore development. There's the grim reaper of the reef.
