Underwater modeling is so so hard, and to photograph as well, the ones with the red that shoot lasted 6 hours and I got 3 usable shots. I can not even imagine how hard it is to do in teh sea with currents and moving little models!!!

JulietNN, after looking at each of your images, I ran out of superlatives. Ethereal, magical, glorious. Maybe a thesaurus would help.
:))
Meanwhile, you are a brave woman to try this difficult form and your images show you succeeded beautifully. |

I'm going to have to try my hand at this one of these days. But the logistics are dogging me.

that photographer (mark alberich) uses a fancy underwater housing now, but when i first started shooting with him (about 2004?) he was using one of these:
//www.storus.com/detail.php?product=dry-pouch
and he only ever lost one camera, and that was because he had to drop it to the bottom and go rescue a model who had managed to get herself thoroughly tangled up... he told me it is the only time he was ever close to vomiting in the pool! (it was a D1, i think... i would have wept if i had been there!) he has used them in the ocean also, although he said he was less comfortable about it there.
if you are determined and willing to take a bit of risk, it is certainly doable without making a very large investment. |

Ah, yes. I've seen these. Glorified Ziplog baggies! I'd be SO scared to try it. I'll just have to wait until I have another camera, "just in case".
In terms of shooting under water, did he hold his breath as well, or did he have a snorkel or something? His images are really dark too. Are they in a pool? Lake?
PS - thanks for introducing me to his work.
