Adobe Lightroom for Underwater Photographers--October 9, 2010Our Adobe Lightroom Class is a one day seminar designed specifically for underwater shooters. Learn essential digital photo techniques and computer methods. This seminar is instructed by Adobe Lightroom guru Daniel Brown.Much like the process of shooting, there are specifics to post-processing that are unique to underwater photography. Backscatter, blue-green water, sun balls, and the occasional fin of another diver can all have an impact on the final image. Lightroom has many secret tips and tricks that any underwater photographer should keep in mind.
We will also touch on the new features of Lightroom 3.0 so you can see if it is right for you.
In this session, we will cover:
- Libraries, folders, and essential workflow tips
- The essentials of importing, tagging, key-wording
- Exposure control and color balance
- Applying the same changes to multiple images
- Quick touch-up tricks from within Lightroom
- Exporting multiple images as JPEGS or TIFFs, or both at the same time
- When to know you have reached the limits of Lightroom and need Photoshop... Or DO you?
Cost: $150
Class starts at 9:30am and runs to approximately 3pm, with a break for lunch. It is suggested to bring your laptop computer with Lightroom installed, a few underwater images, and lots of questions for a Q and A at the end of the class.
The class is held at Backscatter West in Monterey, CA.

We had a fantastic time at the Digital Shootout this year. Great diving in Little Cayman and in depth shooting seminars every day. We have come home with a wealth of great photos and video to share with you! |

We've returned to Jim Abernathy's motor yacht Shearwater year after year for the most exciting photo experience on the ocean. From sharks to dolphins, a trip on the Shearwater is unequal in large marine animal photography. Not only does Jim pilot the largest and best skilled floating bait machine on the water, he's also a serious shooter that understands what you need to get the shot. Jim's a brilliant waterman and photographer and someday soon he'll release the greatest shark and dolphin photo book ever made. For now we get to be a part of his fun by buying passage and sharing in the amazing photo opportunities Jim has created. |

We're thrilled to return to the famous island of sharks this year. From huge schools of hammerheads and jacks, to flying formations of marble rays or potential baitballs, the island of Cocos always delivers the greatest opportunity for natural wildlife displays.
