First Water Shots

Posted: February 4th, 2010 | Author: Mike | Filed under: Photography | Tags: , , , , | 2 Comments »

This morning, I grabbed a couple waves then switched out my board for some swim fins and a waterproof camera.  A friend let me borrow his Canon Powershot SD700 IS with a waterproof housing so that I could try my hand at some shots of waves.  I have to say that I had an absolute blast being in the water with that camera.

I was trying to get a picture from inside the tube, but this was my first outing with a water camera so I found it to be a bit harder than I expected.  While I personally got barreled a few times, I didn’t capture the images to prove it.  I’ll give it a shot again tomorrow if the waves cooperate.

Here my 1st attempt at a tube shot plus another couple pictures of waves from the opposite perspective.
