I put together a collage of some of my favorite underwater photos from '21.
I was only able to do 2 trips, 1 to the FL panhandle and 1 to the FL Keys, but despite limited diving I was able to create a couple memorable shots and improve on a couple things.
I finally moved from my antiquated photoscape program for editing to lightroom. I previously relied on the camera to get it right in the jpeg, and was usually happy enough with that. But after taking the time to learn LR editing of RAWs it was quickly apparent that what the camera did wasn't always best for the situation.
And I think this year despite the big layoffs between diving I retained/improved shooting fish schools which is one of my favorite things to shoot when there aren't big subjects.
All-in-all not a bad year, hope '22 is as good or better!
