JOHN CHANDLER
John has been a certified PADI Divemaster since 1982
and has remained active in leading dive trips around the
world. In 1996, John took some time off to earn his PADI
Open Water Instructor certification. He has since added
the experience of advancing through Master Scuba Diver Trainer, IDC Staff
Instructor and since May of 1998 the distinction of Master Instructor with more
that 900 certifications. John reserves most of his time now for teaching
Underwater Photography as he realizes the new joy of helping others capture
their memories on film.
JOHN’S TIP 1:
Ensure your batteries are either new, or freshly re-charged before each
dive. Do not save money only to lose great underwater images.
JOHN’S TIP 2:
Align your flash head(s) to be exactly parallel to the direction of your
camera lens. Only point the flash down and inward when taking Close-
Up or MACRO images.
