Master Neutral Buoyancy for Underwater Photography in Anilao
Diving in Anilao is world famous for it’s incredible, rare and an unusual macro life. Underwater photographers flock to these critter-rich dive sites in the Philippines hoping to capture their best images from beneath the sea.
Have you ever wondered how some photographers’ images always seem to be crisp and in perfect focus or that some videographer’s footage looks like a scene from an episode of National Geographic? Have you swum behind a pro and noticed that despite using powerful fin kicks they rarely disturb even a grain of sand on the bottom? Or how your dive guides can move so effortlessly and gracefully in the water? They all share one thing in common – excellent buoyancy control. Once you master your buoyancy you’ll find you can take better pictures, move more easily, dive without disturbing the environment and even save air – meaning more time to literally “focus” on your imaging!
Anilao scuba diving is perfect for improving your buoyancy with a view to taking better images. Once you have mastered how to achieve neutral buoyancy you’ll be able to hover close to the bottom without moving. Holding your camera equipment steady will allow you to take the pictures or footage you have been hoping for – in focus and without any camera shake.
Taking the PADI Peak Performance Buoyancy Specialty when you are diving in Anilao will enhance your skills and you’ll see an improvement in your imaging as you progress. You’ll learn how to gauge your weighting for the conditions, how to check your weighting before you start your dive, adjust your weights for trip, master neutral buoyancy and efficient finning as well as how to use your breathing to maintain your buoyancy. During your PADI Peak Performance specialty course in Anilao you’ll make two incredible dives to work on your techniques while spotting critters along the way.
