This class introduces the fundamentals of underwater photography in a river environment, teaching participants how to capture stunning images beneath the surface. Students will learn how to use waterproof camera equipment, adjust camera settings for changing light conditions, and compose creative shots in moving water. The course also covers river safety, environmental awareness, and techniques for protecting both equipment and aquatic habitats. Through guided practice, participants will photograph fish, plants, rocks, and other natural features while building confidence in underwater shooting skills. Instructors provide personalized feedback to help students improve their technical abilities and artistic vision. By the end of the class, participants will have a collection of unique river photographs and the knowledge to continue exploring underwater photography on their own.
