Celebrating the Majesty of Sharks.
The Post Process of Underwater Photography
Doug Sloss reveals his post production secrets!
In this digital age half of the battle facing the photographer is the digital post processing. I don't know about you but my Photoshop skills kinda bite the big one if I'm trying to do anything more than put a title across a very plain looking banner. It comes as no surprise that there are a plethora of available software DVD's for the digital shooter.
Shooting underwater however brings with it a whole new set of obstacles. Overbearing Blues, hues that we don't normally get in air, back-scatter, suspended particles in the water column all seem to gang up on the photographer, a true assault on one's abilities.
Enter Doug Sloss, award winning underwater photographer and Photoshop master. He has painstakingly pieced this product together to bring all of the common issues facing the underwater photographer in the post production of their imagery. Leaving no stone unturned the DVD contains every last element you will need to create stunning underwater shots.

Just received Doug's DVD in the mail this week and I have spent a few hours this afternoon learning more about 'keywords' and sorting out my images ... should have known this stuff long ago, but I guess it's never too late to learn. With some 25,000 images I have a bit to sort out. Great tutorial Doug.
Cheers John.

There are plenty of books and DVDs available for Aperture and Iphoto that will give you all the basic skills needed to work on any photo, do a search on google or amazon and you will find plenty
