Typical U/W Photographer PLUS Course Itinerary
Day 1: (1/2 day)
Meet your instructor at our studio and begin to learn about the camera you’ll be using during the course. Receive a basic introduction to underwater photography. Get familiar with the camera on land, both in and out of its housing to learn its functions. Complete Day 1 by learning about the set-up and care of underwater camera housings and prepare for the next day out on the dive boat, by setting-up your own camera.
Day 2:
Meet at Scubafish Dive Centre at 7.45am for a tea or coffee, before making your way to the boat, where you can relax and enjoy breakfast.
Run through a quick refresher with your Instructor on how to use your camera & underwater housing and get a little practice in, on the boat. Cover key safety procedures, before making your first dive with one of our photography experts at your side.
During the lunchtime surface interval, we provide you with as much feedback as possible to make sure you get the most out of your next dive, giving you tips on buoyancy, composition and other techniques as well as discussing any problems you had with the camera and trying to solve them.
On the second dive, we try different subjects and shot-types so you can collect more great photos of our many fascinating underwater residents.
We arrive back at the Dive Centre at around 2.30pm, to review your photos and you’ll receive tips and feedback to help make the most of your camera on the next day’s diving.
Day 3:
Make a further 2 dives out on the dive boat where we introduce further exercises & techniques to take your photography skills to the next level. At the end of the day, we’ll provide more feedback on your photos.
Day 4:
On the final diving day, make another two dives concentrating on any area of underwater photography of your choice. Try out an external strobe or refine your wide-angle skills. As usual we spend some time after the boat returns, looking over your photos and giving suggestions and practical advice.
Day 5: (1/2 day)
Select a few of your favourite images and spend some time perfecting them using computer editing software. Learn techniques to correct many common underwater photography problems from basic cropping and contrast correction, to colour enhancement and backscatter removal.
Leave with a CD containing eye-catching photos, that will not only impress your family and friends, but you’ll be able to publish them on the web or even enter them into competitions.
