Thu, 30 Jun 2011 00:14:28 GMT

May 8 - May 8 2011 Underwater Photography Trip to Fiji, Kadavu, OTHER, Fiji

You�re a pretty good underwater photographer, but not a pro. You want to step up your game by sharpening your eye, honing your photo trigger finger and getting your lighting down. If you just had one week, you�re thinking, you could get it done. And if you had a patient instructor, minus the intimidating resume and overinflated ego, who�s willing to spend as much time with you as you need, you�d be all set. Wait! Did you hear that knocking at your door? It�s opportunity. Scuba Travel Ventures is now proud to offer divers the chance to spend a week luxuriating in a Pacific paradise while elevating their underwater photography skills. Noted underwater photographer Dr. Andre Smith is leading a seminar on the subject from Thursday, August 11 to Saturday, August 20 at Matava � Fiji�s leading eco-adventure resort, on the island of Kadavu � for shooters of all levels of skill and experience. �We�re taking all comers, aiming to make sure that everyone gets the right level of attention,� says Smith, an anesthesiologist by profession who originally hails from South Africa but now calls British Columbia home. �Some resorts and live-aboards offer courses, but they forget that people are on holiday and want to have fun. The diving will be fun and easy and not pressurized.� The diving goes down in the Great Astrolabe Reef, one of the Pacific�s most radiant dive jewels, located on Kadavu�s southern shore. With an area of about 75 miles, the reef is the world�s fourth largest and features encounters with graceful manta rays, curious reef sharks, a rainbow palette of tropical fish, spectacularly colorful hard and soft corals, walls and mesmerizing passages. Some of the sexiest sites include a handful in the immaculate Naiqoro Marine Reserve, the aptly named Manta Reef, the richly colored Japanese Gardens and Coral Wonderland. It�s all yours to photograph. Smith says the course � which also features instruction by shooter and trip leader Randy Osgerby � will involve daily classroom sessions, with two days devoted to macro, three to wide-angle and the final day devoted to a diver�s choice, with a slide show at the end of the trip. The majority of the work Smith says he�ll do with his new students will be underwater and after dives to check out the results. �There�s lots of multitasking on dives and I�m hoping to simplify things for divers so the photography part becomes second nature,� Smith says. �I�m not looking for shooters to compete with each other. But by the end of the week, we�re hoping to turn out confident photographers.� To check out more of Dr. Andre Smith�s fabulous underwater photography click this link or visit his website: http://andresmith.speedalbum.com/home.htm.

Catalina Chamber Day/Evening 2009

Fri, 29 Apr 2011 19:09:21 GMT

Scuba Diving Event May 6: , CA, USA

as you may or may not know, the catalina chamber is dedicated strictly to the treatment of diving accidents on a 24/7/365 basis. although we hope you�ll never need it, having the chamber available gives divers a vital safety net in the event something should go wrong with your dive. although there is a grant from la county, and the chamber gets income from some outside activities, chamber day provides a significant portion (close to 50%) of the chamber�s annual budget. the main event is chamber day , a full day of diving (two dives) at catalina plus a walking tour of the chamber at the isthmus. cost for this is $90 (plus $30 for food & airfills) which gets you the diving, the tour, a t-shirt, and five raffle tickets. for those who can�t take a day off but would still like to participate we have the flying dutchman , a mythical boat but a big part of chamber day as it�s the perfect place for those who can�t do the event. those who choose to �dive� the dutchman get a special limited-edition t-shirt (available only to those who sign up for the dutchman) as well as raffle tickets. there�s also the chamber challenge , where the diving community is �challenged� to raise extra funds for our chamber, through specific donations (usually $100, but also $500 and $1000), which then hopefully challenges your friends to match your generosity. r affle tickets can be purchased for the daytime raffle (you need not be present to win) whether you�re going on a boat or just want a chance at winning some fabulous prizes.
