New series on getting started in underwater photography

[klausi]

I just started a new series on getting started in underwater photography.

The first chapter is about the importance of good buoyancy, and how to practice it. Without the skill to remain stationary in front of the marine life to be photographed, no quality shots will ensue. The following chapters, appearing weekly, will deal with everything from choosing the right camera, housing & strobes, to exposure, approaching fishes and finding the right exposure.

I'm happy about feedback or suggestions what topics should get special consideration.

These are nice pieces, especially this last one, where the level of detail is very useful. And I love the photos you're using as illustrations!
