    The idea is to hold a seminar at Queen's Gardens aboard the new ship Avalon Dive Center. The date would be in May. I will travel a few weeks before to confirm that everything is ready and inspect the ship.

     

    My suggestion to those who already know how to make pictures is to work with sharks, turtles and big fish. I will offer guidance on lighting and helpful advice.

     

    It is an incredible opportunity to work in the best dive destination in the Caribbean.

     

    In short time the information will posted on the web.

  3. Hi Carloz,

    love that shot. What settings/equipment did you use? I am heading to Tiger beach in July and would love a few tips. You used a long exposure like 1/30th for the blur? What aperature and strobe setting. Love the blur with the dark background, the shark is so crisp and you can really feel the movement

     

    all the best

    This shot is made with D200, tokina 10-17 and two Subtronic Maxi. F14 1/25 strobe power in 1/4 and the wether is cloudy. For me the realy important in this shot are the strobe position.

     

    Thanks for comments.
