Underwater Photography

Underwater photography is the practice of taking photographs while submerged in water, typically in oceans, lakes, or pools. It captures the beauty of marine life, underwater landscapes, and unique perspectives that are difficult to see from the surface. Special equipment, such as waterproof cameras or housings, is necessary to protect gear from water damage. Lighting can be challenging due to water absorption, so divers often use external flashes or lights. This genre of photography not only showcases the wonders of underwater ecosystems but also raises awareness of marine conservation issues.
