Underwater Photography: Experimenting


This is my first go at trying out underwater photography with stuff I could find at home, but in September I will be starting at Falmouth Uni where I will be doing a underwater photography course using the best equipment, but for now I used a glass vase and my compact camera. I just wanted to know if the idea would work and I feel that it did, but still have to experiment with it with a couple more shoots.

Below are some of the photographs.  
 
 
 

 

 

 
The main problem I had was that even though the water looked clear from above the surface, below it was very murky and I could not use the flash because it would reflect off the glass vase.
I would like to continue with this idea through the summer. I also have other ideas that I am starting soon and will do blog posts about them.
