Digital Madness in Cayman

81 posts
  1. We missed you Timo - the WB may be a bit off - we started early (dawn) and this was shot a little later with the WB from the dawn.

     

    Having said that the sky was really off and on cloudy which meant that I was continuously buggering about with ISO and shutter speed so at times near the dawn the cloud did give a reddish tinge.

     

    Anyhow maybe I just had an 'arty' moment - maybe it was just wind (no response required thanks mate).

  2. Paul,

     

    Just use the wb eyedropper and click on the sand - that should fix it up for you. If it's not a RAW file then go to curves or levels and you'll get an eyedropper there too.

     

    Cheers

    Been busy shooting. We did our end of trip slideshow over lunch today. I am really looking forward to putting together a gallery of the shots from this week. Some really fantastic images by all.

    LOL, great Victor, it figures that there are two rays right behind me. :lobster: What's a matter Dean? That's a great shot. It's got everything, sunrise, multiple subjects, rule of thirds, tells a story, stud model in Black rubber. I thought that was right up your alley. It's for sure going on my wall. Hey Tim can you drive over and buy Dean (if I'm bored you can't have any fun either) B a drink for me? Sounds like he could use it. :(

     

    Looking forward to the gallery Alex.

     

    Cheers,

  10. Love that seahare shot Jon - great concept! Oh and the crossed stingrays aren't bad :-)

  11. Back in England now. Sunny here.

    I'll get on with making a gallery in the next day or so. Will depend how quickly people email their permissions/photos.

  12. Greate Alex, looking forward to this gallery.

    Many great pictures. :lobster:

     

    Is it possible to post the foto info like shutter, iso... with the pictures. I find it very helpful

    to learn from the pictures with this info.

     

    When do you plan next Madness in the Cayman?

    Waiting for my 5DMkII Aquatica UWhouse :(

  13. I am still trying to collect up images and permissions from everyone to post a gallery of underwater shots from the workshop. But in the meantime you can check out this wonderful collection of topside images taken by Preddrag during week 1. Really capture the atmosphere of the event.

    You can see more of Predrag's amazing photography on his website.

     

    Here is one of me from the "topsides" gallery testing my ring-flash in the pool:

    And here is some photo instruction in action - or just me having a go with someone elses camera!

  14. Guys and gals,

    You owe it to yourself to spend some time on Pedrag's website. You'll see some amazing images. It's hard to believe he's just getting started with his U/W work. We'll be hearing from Mr. Vuckovic again.

     

    Cheers,

    Steve

  15. Hi Guys,

     

    I have got permissions and images from about half the group now - and since I am off again at the weekend - I decided to create a gallery. If you have not sent your images in yet - I'll update this on my return.

     

    Here is the gallery

     

    Generally I stuck to the rule of just 2 images per photographer - although I stretched the rules a little in a couple of cases when I just couldn't choose.

    Article about Alex's workshop on Grand Cayman is now available on my website!

    Read and enjoy :)

    Wow, your pics are beautiful!!!

  18. I hope that the members of WETPIXEL will enjoy with our pictures at least a bit as we did on Alex's amazing workshop on Grand Cayman.

    WOW I'm just blown away. The same to Alex's site.

    Now I know I have a long way yet to go with my pictures. But that is a positive thing I think :D

  19. Great stuff everyone (I was out of town and saw this thread was started, but neveer got a chance to go through it since then.)

     

    Looks like everyone had a blast.
