Mark it down in your calendar: The Monterey Shootout will take place August 9-12th, 2018. The event is co-hosted by the Northern California Underwater Photography Society (NCUPS) and Backscatter.

The Monterey Shootout – as its name suggests – is primarily a competition. During the course of 32 hours, participants will take their best images in various categories for the chance to win some spectacular prizes. But the contest is only the beginning: The Backscatter staff is set to headline a fine lineup of underwater photo education seminars. Other presenters include Mike Bartick, Ron Watkins, and Erin Quigley. 

Finally (and perhaps most importantly), there will be a concluding cocktail party Saturday evening—a chance to mix, mingle, and be merry. You can experience all the Monterey Shootout has to offer for a registration fee of $25.
