Hi everyone
I'm new at UW photography and I would like to clarify what are the acceptable ways for stabilizing yourself for a shot. I guess hovering using breathing techniques is ideal but this is sometimes difficult especially when shooting macro or in a current. Touching the reef is often prohibited but is it aceptable to touch or kneel on the sand? I also see other divers using a retractable rod or pointer to steady themselves. Is this ok?
Lastly, when you are in a group and a guide points out something interesting, should you go first or last?
Would also appreciate other tips on UW photo etiquette.
Thanks in advance!
