June Images from Cozumel-
Link- Picasa Web Albums - Andrew R
This is my second vacation with this camera setup; Sp-350 and Oly case.
This years scare was dropping the camera while resolving an immediate problem; it was not on a lanyard and I had to backtrack to find it.- Yes my air consumption was terrible on that dive!
Big breakthrough was learning to line up the target for pictures and let the current float me towards them.
Outside of more practice, lighting (natural) is still a challenge.
Highlight is this image Picasa Web Albums - Andrew R - Cozumel 2008 ...
could not believe my lucky stars that image turned out.
I really want to move to a wide angle lens to get closer to the images and widen the pallet.
Also, I have held off on strobes trying to master the natural lighting but strobes would have been great on my cave dives. (that is whole other topic)
Any comments would be appreciated; especially on angles, color, corrections and esthetics.
At this point a class is probably in order to better my skill set and start to move forward.
Cozumel drift diving is incredible, but stopping and lining up the shots can be very challenging.
Regards, Andrew
