tdpriest 115 Posted July 24, 2014 Hi! One comment was from a photographer worried about hordes of photographers competing for the same subject. Many workshops avoid that, by splitting up the group. Alex Mustard, in particular, is really good at organising things so as to stress neither the wildlife nor the photographers. It would be a good question to ask of the organisers, of course. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aside from smaller groups, I think it also helps that underwater you can take advantage of other photographers as subjects, too, at least for some types of shots.

tdpriest 115 Posted August 20, 2014 (edited) I think it also helps that underwater you can take advantage of other photographers as subjects... I used to think that, but now believe that a model has to model, so you have to plan before the dive to set up the shot, which means the subject has to agree to take time out from photography. You can then swap over, and that does work, although the model's camera might be best left out of the shot. Even in a "set-up", the camera can spoil the image.
