(Location: Whale Bone, Murion Islands, Exmouth, WA, Australia)Waters around Murion Islands, off Exmouth, in Western Australia are rich in Corals, such as these fan corals. When I dive, my camera was equipped with a wide-angle lens: a fish-eye lens to be exact. Fish-eye lens can be very irritating especially, when you don’t want to go as wide as 180-degree coverage. ...
(Location: Gulliver, Ningaloo Reef, Exmouth, WA, Australia)Though I have seen many Turtles in their natural habitat, couldn’t make it a point to take photos. They are very fast underwater and usually don’t give much room for a photographer unless he/she is well prepared to shoot a fast-moving subject.While I was diving the famous Ningaloo Reef in Western Australia, I ...
(Location: Rangoon Wreck, Unawatuna, Galle, Sri Lanka)Shipwrecks are great objects to photograph underwater. One of the key techniques I use in shooting within the vicinity of a shipwreck is combining the wreck with fish or other objects of the ecosystem. Most importantly, it gives a room to frame the nature with rustic decaying shapes of the wreck which I enjoy ...
(Location: Lotus Barge, Colombo, Sri Lanka)This is one of the photos I am so pleased with. I like the colors, composition and everything. Most of all, this is not even cropped or spent time improving after shooting. This is pretty much as it was shot. This also reveals how shipwrecks harmoniously blend with natural growth of coral and marine life. ...
(Location: Car Wreck, Colombo, Sri Lanka)This is a good opportunity to shoot a nice pair of Lion fishes. Though I am happy with the composition I am not quite sure if I like the final output. The main subject which is the big fish is not sharp enough. Also colors are not as good as expected. Anyway, we learn from each mistake.
(Location: Car Wreck, Colombo, Sri Lanka)When shoot Divers I always want to create a special composition by combing them with wreck or reef. This is one such attempt made while I was diving with a team in Colombo recently.
I always try shooting upwards while staying law. This image shows the result which is good background supported by blue waters and sunlight. This is one such attempt made in Lotus Barge shipwreck in Colombo. I am happy with the result.Anyway, there are two concerns; First one is getting direct sun into image throws extra challenge in managing the light. ...
Around the Rottnest Island of Western Australia offer, temperate yet bit different underwater ecosystem. It is a place with cold water yet with some corals. Blue Devil is one of the interesting sub tropical fishes we found here.
This is an interesting Ship Wreck. When try shooting conditions were not perfect, yet there was a room for try it once visibility improved suddenly during the dive.
This is one of my favorite shots from my underwater shoot at Weligama bay. In am anyway pleased with the fish life in Yala rock.This photo is all about timing. This chap approached me in gentle manner and my camera was in right configuration and right setting. Please keep in mind I am shooting fully manual mode. So having right ...
