Glass and Water Summary

Glass and Water: The Essential Guide to Freediving for Underwater Photography by Mark Harris

Glass and Water is the first book on underwater photography for freedivers. With contributions from expert underwater photographers this book teaches the skills, knowledge and equipment necessary to successfully pursue underwater photography without scuba gear. Rather than seeking to replace books on underwater photography, Glass and Water focuses on freediving techniques, equipment and photo opportunities. By carefully choosing or adapting freediving and photographic equipment some early hurdles can be avoided. Using appropriate freediving techniques can increase the length of time available for taking photographs underwater. And by being aware of the possibilities, frustrations can be avoided and good subjects sought out.

Glass and Water Reviews

'It is clear that Glass and Water is a well thought through book that has been years in the development and writing. Mark has an encyclopedic knowledge of his subject and a clear and easy way of imparting his experience. The book is well laid out and designed and should be a must for anyone wanting to take pictures underwater'- gofreediving.co.uk; 'An outstanding resource for both novice and advanced freedivers, snorkelers and underwater photographers in general': deeperblue.com; 'A very informative book which will help freedivers improve their images... The nicest surprise for me was the Virtual Dive chapter. This chapter alone was worth the price of the book' - UWP magazine; 'You will end up with an extensive skill set if you pursue all avenues of advice... A great addition to the bookshelf for photographers and freedivers'- learn2freedive.com; 'It's most unlikely that you'll come away without learning something brand new and innovative... I'm very impressed indeed' - Martin Edge.; 'Glass and Water should be as essential as a pair of fins and a camera for underwater photographers. Mark shares his tremendous expertise ... the methodical and well-illustrated techniques will benefit anyone wishing to produce great images in the sea' - Brian Skerry.
