I’ve done it, excitedly ripped open the box of my new camera, quickly thumbed through the manual safe in the knowledge that there is an auto setting that will do all the work for me and I’ll be able to work things out as I go along right? – wrong!

When I compare my images to somebody’s who has taken the time to practice and learn just about everything the camera can do, mine come up woefully short…

That’s why workshop’s with professional photographers at resorts or on liveaboards are extremely popular. These seminars fill up fast and are a great way to fast track your underwater photography skills. So if you want to shoot like the pro’s join one of these highly educational trips and get some great diving too.
