ABSTRACT

All over the world there are numerous diving trips that cater exclusively for the needs of enthusiastic underwater photographers of all standards. The manner in which the diving is conducted, be it shore-based or a live-aboard, provides the conditions, stimulus and environment for photographers to do their thing. Only by creating the right environment will you fulfil your potential and consistently perform at your best. The solution could be nothing more than hiring a boat to visit a particular photogenic dive site, joining an underwater photo group who dive together, or signing up for a dedicated photographic workshop. So many aspects of consistent photography require a state of mind to develop skills so that real improvement can begin.
