mattdiver 0 Posted July 27, 2006 Obvious self-plug, but for a book dedicated to digital UW photography, I'd suggest: Essential Guide to Digital Underwater Photography Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PRC 2 Posted July 27, 2006 Second the Martin Edge book ( make sure you get the latest edition ). Also the Howard Hall / Brian Skerry book. If you digest these two you are well on your way to having the right idea - taking the pictures - well that can be a diferent matter ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scubaboy1 0 Posted July 27, 2006 Master Guide for Underwater Digital Photography by Jack & Sue Drafahl is also a good reference. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PRC 2 Posted July 28, 2006 I have seen your pics Paul which book have you used wacko.gif wacko.gif Or have you just made up your own? blink.gif blink.gif HaHaHaHa Yea, always get your macro lens right close to the page - even if it is a wide angle shot. Also be careful of strobe placement - the buggers reflect on some of the shiny pages. Double page spreads are a trick subject - careful work in photoshop can be required to remove the spine. Anyway why am I telling you this - you are good at this stuff.... Anyway you coming to the red sea in January ? I'm not sleeping with you again - had enough last time.......
