...underwater photography?
aku kira dah quite experienced underwater photographer la... as i said quite. tak lah pro lagi. bnyk lagi yg kena blajar. angles, composition, exposure levels, the surrounding water particles, the proper usage of flash, behaviour of fish and on top of all that, there is the editing in photoshop. behaviour of fish penting, ko kena tahu bila the best time to get their pictures always be ready. have to think a step ahead of them. some fish do swim around so fast! susah gila nak ambik gambar!!!
incident yg aku nak cerita, ambik underwater photography ni ada jugak problem nya. one of them from the fish themselves. digital camera bila dah letak dalam underwater casing dan being submerge underwater to take pictures weirdly enuf the whole thing becomes one shiny object! macam ikan yg berkilat2 or something yg berkilat2... esp. when close to the water surface. ikan2 apa lagi, they get so intruiged and excited most of them do come close to me. dan start gigit the camera casing!!!
ok this sounds like all good things right? bila nak ambik gambar, subject dtg dekat, so tak payah nak kejar!? most of the time yes.... but other times no... ini result nya... mula2 jari tengah aku kena gigit dgn ikan sargeant major kira ikan kecik gigi pun sikit, mula2 aku ingat tak berdarah rupa2 nya luka jugak! tapi sikit... lepas tuu jari manis aku kena gigit dgn a spotted coral grouper. yg ini mmg bergigi... mmg tak nampak sngt kat picture tu tapi kesan gigi dia melengkung kat atas sendi jari manis aku. yg ini mmg berdarah agak teruk dan mmg ah sakit. bisa jugak siot! aku takut jaws dtg terkam aku! hehehe... sebelah gambar jari aku tu, adalah gambar ikan culprit yg telah NGAP jari manis aku sampai berdarah, sakit!!!
tngk jari aku kena gigit. bnyk kali kena gigit... berdarah2... aku tak kisah kalau, sargeant majors or fusiliers or ikan2 kecik2 dtg gigit sbb dia org takde gigi atau kecik shj... tapi bila spotted coral grouper dtg dekat dan gigit, itu lah hasih nya. actually aku rusau jugak bila dah berdarah sbb it can make the sharks become aggressive! tapi dekat area tepi pantai smua kecik2 dia mmg tak kacau org, but big ones aku kena jaga2 la...!
walaupun cedera parah akibat digigit ikan... yeah macam ah cedera parah! hehehe... tapi berdarah dan sakit gak! tapi mungkin kah sebab darah aku manis? sedap rasa nya berbanding darah org lain?! hehehe... yeah RIGHT!!!? walau apa pun aku mmg enjoy gile2 underwater photography... nothing can stop me from taking more pictures!!! well... NO PAIN, NO GAIN. betul tak?!
