q.phia 0 Posted April 3, 2015 good evening- my name is phia, and i've been taking photographs since i was very young, diving since 2007, and photographing underwater since about 2009. i enjoy the extra challenge that diving adds to photography, and i especially enjoy the unique subject matter. i use my photographs to inspire my artwork. i work with stained glass, photography (alternative processes), and design & construct garments. i use the profits from my casual wear line to support mission blue & project aware. i'm interested in constructive critiques of my photographs here, so thank you ahead of time to those who take the time to give me that.

BenBrettingen 1 Posted April 7, 2015 Hey Everybody, My name is Ben Brettingen and I hail from the land of 10,000 lakes, Minnesota! I work for a production company called In-Depth Outdoors and we film an ice and open water fishing show. I do 99% of my diving in freshwater lakes in the midwest and also spend quite a bit of time on Lake Superior and Lake Michigan. I am the primary cameraman but have only been able to capture the top half of the action. Enter WetPixel! I shoot on a panasonic GH4 with the Nauticam housing. I'm looking forward to sharing what I know and also learning from all the experienced underwater photographers and videographers on WP. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pstubley 0 Posted April 26, 2015 Greetings and salutations. My name is Peter, and I am an underwater photo-aholic. Although I don't get as much chance to go as I would like. I have been shooting with Nikons in Aquatica housings for approaching 10 years, and am most interested in the tiny stuff. I am from Montreal, and am a dive instructor (although I do not teach much these days) and give the occasional underwater photo course. You can check out some of my work at www.base.com/pstubley/underwater. Suggestions as to how I can improve are always welcome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JohanKok 0 Posted May 7, 2015 (edited) Hi all, My name is Johan. I have been taking photos for many years, mainly of birds and wildlife. I started diving some years ago and have always loved it. I started taking photos underwater with a Canon A540 and housing followed by an Olympus TG-2. I recently decided to build a website for my wildlife photos and wanted to add underwater photos to my portfolio. The oppertunity came by and now I have a ikelite housing for my Canon 600D with a single ikelite DS-51 strobe and flex arm. My first dives with it were done just recently and I have a heck of a lot to learn! I will have many questions and I look forward participating in the forums. Cheers, Johan Edited May 7, 2015 by JohanKok Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
