Download or read book Underwater Photography written by Steven Brumby and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2012-06-04 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book encourages and guides the avid recreational underwater digital photographer to capture rewarding underwater still images with relative ease and within their budget. The book recognises that many people are motivated to create images of their underwater experiences but that they may find getting rewarding results more difficult than their experience out of water. Many are inspired to learn more about photography by the fascinations of the underwater world more than they have had on land. Throughout, key points are illustrated in colour with over 100 diagrams and photographs with supporting information to allow the reader to compare and contrast various techniques and images. The fundamental concepts, techniques, skills and equipment described are relevant for anyone getting started and for those with experienced but are not getting the results they want. The author recognises there's a continuum from beginner to advanced recreational photographers or Pro/Enthusiast. This guide shows how results can be obtained from modest investments in equipment, ranging from the modern compact to perhaps an SLR with multiple light sources. The guide aims to demystify many digital photography terms relevant to Underwater Photography to make the book relevant for both the beginner, non-technical and as reference for the experienced. The content of this book is a distillation from the authors experience as a SCUBA diver instructor and recreational photographer over many years. Through instructing and coaching divers and snorkellers in the art of underwater digital photography the author has been able to assist recreational photographers to be able to create their own exciting and rewarding images. The author is cognisant of the variety of needs and behaviours of recreational photographers and throughout has endeavoured to produce a guide that balances coverage and depth. The essential components making compelling underwater images are described without the necessitating the need for prior in-depth technical knowledge. The author is mindful that some photographers wish to use as much automation as possible whilst others wish to explore manual control and more technical detail so in some sections optional reading is suggested. It's recognised that some photographers may wish first to concentrate on the fundamentals choosing the extent of depth they wish to explore first and perhaps return to some topics at a later date. Photography is a practical art and this guide encourages skill development by practice with suggested photographic exercises. By demonstrating what results can be obtained on a limited budget the author encourages anyone with an interest in underwater photography and those that have made investments already to further develop their art. As equipment is one of the components involved in producing the desired image this book describes essential and a variety of equipment types and features of interest to the underwater photographer. Underwater photography necessitates additional safety considerations and diving techniques. The book reviews safety and practical considerations when making an aquatic photographic expedition.

Download or read book Winning Images with Any Underwater Camera written by Paul Colley and published by Dived Up Publications. This book was released on 2014-05-29 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘This book will arm and inspire you to transform your underwater photographs, whatever camera you use’: Alex Mustard (from the Foreword) The best underwater images don’t just capture the subject well, they also capture mood, emotion and atmosphere. Unlike most other underwater photography books, Winning Images with Any Underwater Camera focuses on composition and techniques rather than the all-consuming camera technology that people tend to chase first. This makes it a supremely cost-effective tool for improving images; and there is no discrimination between users of different camera systems — this truly is a book for all. International award winner and instructor Paul Colley reveals the short cuts and shows the vital bits of artistic theory as it applies to underwater photography, grappling with composition in much greater depth than in other books. He also includes easy-to-remember reference models for underwater composition: pre-planned concepts for twelve typical underwater scenes, with the principal considerations boiled down to those essentials that will help you achieve great results, time and again.

Download or read book Advanced Underwater Photography written by Larry Gates and published by Amherst Media. This book was released on 2011-12-01 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Designed for photographers who already have strong diving skills and understand basic photographic techniques, this reference defines what advanced underwater photography is while teaching the skills necessary to create professional-quality images. Opening with a quick overview of the basics—such as exposure, focus, subject selection, and composition—the author then expands on each of these topics, showing the techniques pros use to achieve truly stunning images. A major factor in advancing beyond the basic level of underwater photography is moving from a point-and-shoot or semi-adjustable camera to using a full-featured digital SLR camera. The myriad equipment choices available when making this transition—including cameras, lenses, underwater housings, and the lighting units designed to be used with them—are explained, as are their respective advantages and shortcomings. Because both beginning and advanced underwater photographers can have equipment-related issues, a trouble-shooting section is included to ensure that minor equipment problems won’t ruin a costly dive trip.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diving the Thistlegorm is a unique in-depth look at one of the world’s best-loved shipwrecks, the World War II British Merchant Navy steamship. In this highly visual guide, cutting edge photographic methods enable views of the famous wreck and its fascinating cargo which were previously impossible. Sitting upright in 30m of clear, inviting Red Sea waters, the ship is packed with the materials of war. Largely complete lorries, trucks, motorbikes, aircraft spares and airfield equipment are crammed into the forward holds and the remains of other vehicles lie amongst boxes of ammunition in the exploded aft holds. Often referred to as an underwater museum, the wreck fascinates visitors for dive after dive. The book is the culmination of decades of experience, archaeological and photographic expertise, many hours underwater, months of computer processing time, and days spent researching and verifying the history of the ship and its cargo. For the first time, Diving the Thistlegorm brings the rich and complex contents of the wreck together, identifying individual items and illustrating where they can be found. As the expert team behind the underwater photography, reconstructions and explanations take you through the wreck in incredible detail, you will discover not only what has been learned but also what mysteries are still to be solved.
