I'm headed to Grand Cayman July 14-21. Our first time there and we are staying all the way on the east end.
I'm a highly experienced diving photog and will be interested in best sites for wide angle and natural light video. (Shallower is fine if subjects and vis is good.)
What are the...
I haven't been to Coz in 10 years. Going to be on mainland first week of Aug and have time budget to spend one day in Coz.
I recall most dive shops run just early morning trips. I need to rely on the ferry, thus a later morning or afternoon boat trip is ideal. Any recent recos for...
I'm expecting we'll need a new video subcategory for 360 VR within 18 months, but in the mean time, I remain on the bleeding edge. Is anyone else working in this format yet?
Here are a couple of 360 videos I shot underwater last March during the Weeki Wachee Warrior Challenge, a fund raising event for Wounded Warriors. This is using the custom multi-cam rig I built and first tested in 2012.
