Underwater equip test followup
posted on Monday, September 14, 2009 in Sol Tamargo Matt Adcock
In follow up to this post.... Whew, after a few thousand miles lugging bags and bags of new gear, i've had one day to try to learn and ride my bike again for the first time.
Ride bike for first time = learn to use multiple underwater strobes (off camera) for the first time.... holy moly what a challenge. I'm not 100% in love with my results from this 2 hr test... but am on my way to discover the other side of the rainbow:)
Anyway, here is 2 underwater strobes + above water strobe. Everything shot on Manual... Shot about 2.5 meters of depth. Strobe camera right at 3 meters depth, triggered with optical slave.
Thanks to Sol for being my model :)
Cheers!

well cool!!!
next time I’m your model!!
You are not happy with the shot? I think the image above is awesome. I know every photographer looks at their own work very criticaly, me as well. But this is really good.
Wow I love the concept and Sol looks so tranquil.
Great idea. Well done I really like it.
Matt is the genius in the family.. always thinking on new ideas and figure things out.. then he teaches me.. :) This time, I was the “bride” in the water.. so hard!!! try holding your breath while swim “graciously”... I think I need more practice.. :)
Dude, I’m so excited to see you guys challenging yourselves! As if you weren’t already breaking the mold… here you are pushing yourselves even further. I can’t wait to see what else you come up with!
idk why you’re not happy, this is sick. definitely innovative
You GO Matt!
