Underwater images from Maui
Saturday, August 28, 2010 at 09:56PM | Kevin Kubota This is my first time out with new underwater housing for my D300s. I love it, but have lots to learn still about underwater photography! It's a whole new world compared to the on-land stuff I'm used to. Learning to focus quickly and accurately is challenging - especially while controlling your buoyancy so you float level and calmly. Sea critters don't sit still very long either, so you don't have much time. I used an off-camera flash, which is pretty essential most of the time - and also challenging to get just right. I'm learning a lot and planning on getting better! View my mini album here: http://bit.ly/9jLEi6

Amazing photos! Thanks for sharing!
Welcome to the underwater world.....Good effort for a first time. Some good angles on the turtles.
These pictures are amazing! Not bad for the first time. Looking forward to seeing more!
Hey Kevin
Great photos - I finally got a housing for a 40D and tried underwater photography for the first time a couple of months ago. It's a LOT harder than it looks! Great photos - and loved the video of the school of fish. Can't wait to see more!
great first effort--thanks for sharing
