This thorough book covers everything one needs to know about scuba diving and underwater photography. Marine biologist Mustard (formerly UK's National Oceanography Ctr.), who has 30-plus years experience with underwater photography, addresses equipment (cameras, lenses, housings, etc.) and techniques for an amazing array of lighting situations, from macro- to wide-angle photography. The five-time BBC Wildlife Photographer of the Year winner offers an interesting final chapter on photographing species ranging from sharks to pygmy sea horses and a few pages on capturing other divers and human models underwater. The title is beautifully illustrated, as readers might expect, and includes a useful glossary, bibliography, and index.
VERDICT This book will be invaluable for anyone seriously interested in underwater photography and those who are fascinated with creatures of the deep.
