Having had several encounters with the timid scalloped hammerhead in the Red Sea, I often wonder how to get that classic silhouette shot from below.
From my experience, as a mere Adv O/W recreational diver, I have always found the subject in question to be lurking below, reluctant to get too close and timid enough to sink out of sight if I dare try to decend that little deeper. Admittedly I was surrounded by flash happy divers with rattles at the time!
My question is, can this shot be achieved on open scuba equipment within recreational limits or is it only possible for those using rebreathers?
