Behind The Lens

Location

The photo was taken at Arenal D'en Castell Menorca October 2013

Time

3.15 pm

Lighting

The light source is natural light

Equipment

I used a Olympus TG-2 Tough Waterproof Camera no flash ISO 100 F2.8 1/200 SEC 25MM JPG Image

Inspiration

I enjoy underwater photography but don't do as much as i would like to its a different world of photography underwater.

Editing

I edited the image in Lightroom 4 and PS CS6 the Olympus TG-2 only shoots jpeg images so i was limited to how much i could do with the images so i used a lightroom b/w preset and and masked out the background to black added some shadows to the skin tones

In my camera bag

Nikon Cameras D300 D800 Nikon 10.5mm Fisheye Nikon 70-200mm F2.8 Nikon 14-24mm F2.8 Nikon 17-55mm F2.8 Nikon 50mm F1.4 Sigma 105mm F2.8 Sigma 300mm F2.8 Nikon SB600 Flash Nikon SB800 Flash Nikon SB900 Flash Olympus Tough TG-2

Feedback

My advice would be get the best underwater camera for your budget find very clear water if your in the sea use a wetsuit and be a good swimmer use natural light.
