Leave a comment

We had our class every evening after dinner. We are given guidelines, suggestions and techniques. Our professor is Alex is available any time to assist us or give advice or opinion. The one on one help is really valuable.

Before photo class, we have a briefing to let us know what to expect tomorrow.

One of my photo questions, it how to photograph sea critters, when you approach them, they turn their back and run away. Alex said instead of following the animal, swim slowly by their side and keep pace with them, then when the critter determine that you are not a threat, you can get in front of them and take the photo. Some fish, you swim up to them and they run away, if you just hover for a minute, some will come out of the hole and engage with you.

Squid, cuttle fish

Some fish can be cooperative, and will seem to pose for you after they decide that you are no threat. I found the Angelfish and surprising some Barracudas were.
