In the relatively short time I have been shooting underwater I am always trying to produce a photograph with the "WOW Factor" - an image that can capture the imagination, that inspires to do better and satisfies the onlooker. This is more difficult than it seems particularly to the land based viewer who doesn't appreciate the difficulties we all encounter to capture the moment but to those who try endlessly to press the button at the right time, only they know what goes into the final visual. Frustrating - yes at times - the one that got away syndrome, but never the less - for me - nothing more satisfying than trying to perfect your individual style.

I research Dive Operators more so nowadays to ensure that they are in tune with what we need as photographers on a dive trip. Professional, eco-friendly, patient dive guides, operating unhurried small similar minded groups, good local knowledge of sites and the habitat of the creatures within them, enthusiasm, sense of humor and wanting to be part of your experience.
