In underwater photography, close is key. You need to be as close to your subject as possible. Because the water absorbs light, the further away from your subject you are, the less light you have to work with. Remember that the path of light from your strobe is twice the distance from you to your subject, because the light must travel from the strobe to the subject, then back to your camera sensor. So get close!
Stop by Husker Divers next time you're in the neighborhood and see the photos from this winter's trips to Statia and to St. Lucia! And if you have any questions about underwater photography, we'll be happy to help you.

Husker Divers Plans Trips for 2010
Husker Divers' dive travel experts have booked two fantastic dive trips for 2010. Check with the store if you're interested in signing up for one of these trips or for more details.
The dates are January 23-30 for the first trip of 2010. We'll travel to Ramon's Village, near San Pedro, Belize. We'll be staying at Ambergris Caye in beachfront rooms. Numerous diving options are yours for the choosing, and on non-dive days, a variety of fun excursions on shore await you.
You'll experience a beautiful white sand beach and the 2nd largest barrier reef on earth, just 400 yards from the resort. Dive the famous Blue Hole or two rare and gorgeous atolls.
Not a diver? How about snorkeling with stingrays and nurse sharks at Shark Ray Alley?
Non-divers and divers on non-dive days can explore ancient Mayan ruins or discover the beauty of the jungle.
Contact Husker Divers at huskerdivers@prodigy.net or at 402-420-6338 to register or for more information on this trip.
Habitat Curacao is the second destination of 2010. 24-hour shore diving and two boat dives per day await you. The ease of the diving makes this an ideal trip for newer divers, and the stunning underwater beauty will leave even veteran divers wanting more. The dates of this trip are February 20-27, 2010.
Marine biologists and noted underwater photographers return again and again to Habitat Curacao for the world-class diving.
As always, you can register for this trip or get more information from the experienced dive travel experts at Husker Divers. Just e-mail them at huskerdivers@prodigy.net or call them at 402-420-6338.
