I know I shouldn't, but I do enjoy a spot of fishing occasionally. Most fish are returned straight away, but others are kept for the pot, especially mackeral like this one caught in Dartmouth Harbour.
Not very eco-friendly though is it? Far better to photograph fish in their natural environment: not easy from above the water.
So in August 2015 I finally took the plunge with underwater photography (geddit? Took the plunge! Oh, never mind).
The Great Barrier Reef in Australia was the perfect place to learn this new skill: warm water, loads of fish and friendly English-speaking locals with advice and tips.
Ecotourism resorts like Cairns in Queensland are all geared up for underwater photography so there's really no need to buy specialist equipment. You can hire underwater cameras and snorkelling gear for just a few dollars. No worries mate.
