Yesterday was a special day, for the first time, I dived my 5D in salt water...
Dry in its new Ikelite glass case, I make sure that everything is well sealed, Marc grabs it while I put on my mask, as soon as I put it on, I dive headfirst in search of rare specimens.
It's always exciting to try a new photo gadget, I swim on the surface and when I see some action, I get close and press the shutter release. The sea is very shifting with the gushing waves breaking over my head, I have to be constantly on my guard not to scratch a knee or a shoulder on the corals while I have my eye in the viewfinder. With all this trouble, I'm doing pretty well and I know that Marc is not far away... In spite of the exorbitant weight of the "kit", this device handles wonderfully, I don't have any extra light or flash yet so my first tests will be in natural light, photoshop will adjust everything later at home. I take hundreds of pictures because I know that only a few will be usable, the ones that will be well lit and well framed.
Here are the fishes of the coastline of SeaLodge in Princeville.

It's always exciting to try a new photo gadget, I swim on the surface and when I see a little action, I approach and presses the trigger. The sea is very moving with the waves breaking burst on my head, I have to be constantly on guard not to flay me a knee or shoulder on corals while I look in the viewfinder. With all this obstacle, I'm doing pretty well and I know that Marc is not far away... Despite the exorbitant weight of the "kit", this machine is handled beautifully, I've not yet light extra or flash then my first try will be in natural light, photoshop will adjust everything later at home.
