I have to be honest here - this was a bit of a fluke! I had planned something similar before entering the water, thinking I'd get the 'standard' shots first then get a bit arty. As it happened I struggled for time to get the standard shots, but as he swam past on this occasion I fired off a couple of shots - and on this one there wasn't enough time for the strobes to recycle and I inadvertently got something similar to what I'd hoped to get later on!

I'll take all the luck on offer in this game!

Ay up Stu,

Canon 1dx in a Nauticam housing
Sigma 15mm fisheye
ISO 400
1/250th f14

If I'd set up intentionally for this shot I'd have been at at least 1/1000th

You ready to go out shooting again yet?

Mike
