Professionalism, experience and good knowledge of the seabeds, animals and waters. That is probably a good summary of what I expected from a dive operator. As uw-photographer I specially appreciate that dive masters give us freedom enough underwater for doing my work. On board trips are my favourites because you get more time underwater and usually better diving places. A good and safety area for the uw-photo gears is a priority whereas other services such us meals and room comfort and services, although interesting, are less important than diving services, especially when I am in a working trip. Travel services, good connections of flights and so on are also important because we usually travel with a lot of luggage.
