The workshop will provide opportunity for participants to learn both, in the classroom and the ocean, the snoot photography techniques required to produce quality images that isolate subjects against a black background.
This is a live in course conducted at Edithburgh, Yorke Peninsula, one of South Australia’s most amazing shore dives and an ideal location for underwater photography.
The workshop will be conducted by Professional Underwater Photographer and Cinematographer, Paul Macdonald of downunderpix. Paul has spent many hours underwater perfecting his macro snoot lighting skills and it is one of his favourite underwater photography techniques.
To participate in this workshop, as a minimum you must hold an open water qualification with a recognised scuba diver training agency, be 15 years or older and provide your own scuba diving equipment (minimum of 2 tanks) and underwater camera system. Also, to get the most out of this workshop you will have sufficient diving experience to have good underwater buoyancy control.
Snoot lights will be provided for use in both the classroom and ocean sessions for those that don’t already have one.
