hand after 1 hour in the water!

Posted by Dimitrios (ATHENS, Greece) on 24 July 2008 in Miscellaneous.

Its time to go underwater and try to describe the beauty as well as the difficulties of taking picture underwater. The location is the Aegean sea surrounding the island of Alonissos which belongs in the Sporades complex together with the islands of Skiathos and Skopelos. Please take a DEEP BREATH and follow me……….

Focusing seems to be a great problem underwater, the camera need a large enough object to focus on so if you want to photograph little fish just at 50 cm below, jut take a test shot of your hand to see how it works, keep this focus and shoot afterwards.
