This was my 4th attempt at underwater photography after a few fails due to the wrong strobe bulkhead on my housing and first attempt with my 105mm macro. I’ve had the 60mm out twice but wasn’t thrilled with the backgrounds I was getting on a Full Frame body. The 105mm, while more difficult to focus and find the subject, gives me more of the look I am used to topside.
I’ve got a lot to learn, especially around diving and buoyancy skills, but am thrilled to finally get to the point I can take my rig underwater.
Here are a few from last night’s dive. While Bob still pointed out most of the subjects for me to shoot, I actually found a few on my own. What a great mentor and instructor to have in my neighborhood.
