Location
This is a composite of 4 separate images I took on the Island of Oahu, Hawaii where I make my home.Time
All of my natural lit underwater photos are taken between the hours of 7:30 am and noon.Lighting
Natural lighting underwater is what I like to shoot. It's all natural sunlight.Equipment
This was shot using a Canon 7D Mark II | Tokina 10-17 fisheye | Aquatech Elite Water HousingInspiration
I was challenged to create a composite out of several photos that I had taken and create something beautiful. This is what I came up with.Editing
I do all of my post-processing in Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop. The main aspects of the photo I adjust are the white balance, contrast, shadows and highlights. I use a product called Loupedeck to help with editing in Lightroom ... check them out.In my camera bag
I am usually shooting either underwater or close to the ocean, shooting landscapes and seascapes. This is what I pack in my RVCA Zak Noyle Camera bag: CANON EOS 7D Mark II with EF-S 18-135mm| Tokina AT-X 107 AF NH Fisheye 10-17mm | Tokina AT-X 116 PRO DX-II 11-16mm f/2.8 | Tamron SP 150-600mm f/5-6.3 | Oben CT-3581 Carbon Fiber Tripod With BE-126T Ball Head | Aquatech Elite 7D2 Sports Housing | HOYA HD3 CIR-PL and HOYA EVO Antistatic UV filters.Feedback
Since this is a composite of 4 different images I've captured I'd say you just have to spend a great deal of time in the elements and be very patient and always be vigilant and on the lookout.
