The Snorkeling Forum has been designed by snorkelers for snorkelers. It has evolved as a way in which the community of water enthusiasts can learn, connect, grow, and enjoy. The forum is meant to be functional, helpful and valuable for people of all ability levels and all ages. The snorkeling-related categories (seen below) are designed to generate questions and lively discussion. The Forum will constantly be evolving in order to improve the contents, community, etc., so please don’t be shy about providing suggestions and constructive criticism. Anyone interested in exploring the marine world first hand is invited to become involved as a member. Happy snorkeling!

Default Something large

Shooting from the surface, as snorkelers often must do, can present some problems. Since you're shooting down it's necessary to seperate your subject from the background. In this case I raised the contrast of the whale shark, which blended into the sea floor, by bumping the ISO setting on my Nikonos V up one stop. In other words, I doubled the ISO number from 50 to 100 thereby increasing the contrast and darkening the image. Questions?

Camera: Nikonos V
Lens: Sea & Sea 12mm
Film: Fuji Velvia 50
Shutter: Automatic
Aperture: f/5.6
