Location
This photo was taken at a villa in Sicily. The girls pictured are all burlesque dancers from a local show.Time
Mid afternoonLighting
It was difficult to find a pool that wasn't blocked by shade. We were finally able to find one slightly outside of the city. It also needed to be a fairly sunny day. We got lucky.Equipment
Sony A7 and an underwater case.Inspiration
I love underwater photography!!Editing
Very little. A bit of saturation and added some filters in Lightroom to bring out the greens.In my camera bag
Sony A7 with two lenses, a hot shoe flash. As a poor student, my arsenal is limited, but I make due with what I have.Feedback
Don't skimp on the underwater camera case. Find one with good reviews. Also, find one that will hold a variety of lenses. I made the mistake of purchasing one that does not fit my wide angle lens, which is my go-to lens. A good case will be at least $200. Professional cases, even more.
