Description A superb hand-on manual containing a wealth of underwater tips, hints and advice - all beautifully illustrated with brand new, full colour images. Martin Edge, a leading authority on underwater photography, will help you capture stunning effects using his popular 'think and consider' system - offering a heightened awareness and understanding of the subject matter, lighting and environment to take the perfect picture. Practical examples take you step-by-step through the basic techniques from photographing shipwrecks, divers, marine life and abstract images to taking photographs at night and 'dual lighting'. In 1999 the late Jim Church, guru of underwater photography, said: 'As a member of the new generation of underwater photography writers, Martin has set a standard that will only be surpassed when he writes a third edition.' Here it is, we hope you enjoy it. You can learn 'how that shot was taken' with practical case studies. It is beautifully illustrated throughout with inspirational full colour underwater images and covers the highly respected philosophy of the 'Think and Consider' System.
