We are also very
happy to announce our NEW DIVE and
TRAVEL PACKAGES... starting from July 2008.
Dirk Fahrenbach from Dugong Dive Center dropped by a few days ago and gave me this CD… Dirk what I am going to do with that one?
There are some images from our Filipino Dive Master Omar on it, please have a look and give me your opinion. Sure…I imported the images into Aperture 2 and got a real surprise…wow these are real great…what camera is he using?
Dirk replied, Oh… one of these little small ones in some sort of Housing…
After I had a good look at the images I checked on the Metadata in Aperture 2 and found out the Camera Model, it is a Canon IXY.
After importing the images I only applied a few adjustments, mainly…cropping, Auto levels and a bit of contrast…since all the images had been in JPG I had some limitations, but Omar’s shots where that good anyway that little was needed for improvements.
I created a new project and after I am done can store this on my external drive in case we need Omar’s shots for some future publications, of course with his permission.

Great shots with such a small Camera, this
gets to show you again what can be done with limited equipment, I
guess in Underwater
Photography you have to
be a good Diver first, and Omar has that mastered for sure.
Hey, lets not underestimate these Dive Guides with perfect diving
skills they can show even the most experience Photographer a trick
or two…in particular in finding you this elusive critters,
remember they dive these places all the time, so next time you
at Dugong Dive Center have a chat with Omar or even better have
a dive with him.
A big thanks to Omar
for sharing his images with us, he has a lot more cool shots, these
are only few of them.
