undewater digitlal photo books

can anyone recomend any good underwater digital photography books for a beginner?

HI,

check out the Martin EDGE BOOKS Exellent it goes right through

the whole system.

Obvious self-plug, but for a book dedicated to digital UW photography, I'd suggest:

Essential Guide to Digital Underwater Photography

Second the Martin Edge book ( make sure you get the latest edition ). Also the Howard Hall / Brian Skerry book.

If you digest these two you are well on your way to having the right idea - taking the pictures - well that can be a diferent matter !

Master Guide for Underwater Digital Photography by Jack & Sue Drafahl is also a good reference.

HI Paul,

Or have you just made up your own? HaHaHaHa

( you know I mean it )

Yea, always get your macro lens right close to the page - even if it is a wide angle shot.

Also be careful of strobe placement - the buggers reflect on some of the shiny pages.

Double page spreads are a trick subject - careful work in photoshop can be required to remove the spine.

Anyway why am I telling you this - you are good at this stuff....

Anyway you coming to the red sea in January ?

I'm not sleeping with you again - had enough last time.......
