Thanks Rita. Having under water shooting capability opens up a lot of new fun possibilities. It also creates some new challenges for shooting under water is very different in many ways from shooting on dry land. #9597804Pat Harry August 14, 2011
This is awesome! I've never shot underwater before. I love the light, the bubbles, and her upward motion. #9603356Dan W. Dooley August 14, 2011
Thanks Pat. It's a first for us with this camera. I've used a film underwater before but nothing in the swimming pool.Actually I think it's a downward motion. She has just jumped off the diving board and is on her way to the bottom. I know her body position and the direction of her hair seems to indicate she is rising, I tried to catch the shot as she was diving and of course the bubbles are following her down. Ok, it's one or the other, LOL When she dives feet first she holds her nose but then she swims from the end of the dive so it looks like shes within the dive phase. I think. :-)
