Underwater Dance Photo - 06-23-2009, 10:45 AM


Liz is a professional dancer with Planet Funk and is at University on a dance scholarship.

Lighting for this shoot is 3 Ikelite 200 strobes. Two are on the camera, with the top one at 1/2 power and the bottom one at 1/4. There is a strobe+softbox out of the water on a boom over the pool.

F11 @ 1/125th ISO200

Hope you like it. Any and all comments/feedback welcomed.

Cheers
James

I probably sound like a broken record, but I always enjoy the underwater shots form everyone. I like the bubbles and the surface reflection a lot.

Thanks for the comments guys and gals.

I got some feedback from friends and did some more work on my favorite photo. I evened out the lighting, smoothed out the background to simple elements, and added some "leg room" at the bottom.

Cheers
James

Love them...The human form looks so graceful in water...so fluid...I don't think this happens in air
