Underwater Photography

 This is an image that I found in an article on a photographer I read about named Eric Cheng.

In April, I went to St. Thomas for vacation and met a women named Paula who was a certified scuba rescue diver.  Paula introduced me to snorkeling and I immediately become amazed by photographing  the colorful fish.  

It is amazing that Eric Cheng was self taught in photography, and can produce beautiful and interesting images like the one above. A website that he talked about in his article was called Wet Pixel  which is an online community for underwater photographers.  

So I think that it would be a fun to use underwater photography from a commercial aspect.  The downfall would be having the right resources to get into that industry and the capital to travel to the gorgeous waters.
