h2o - Swimmer

Vosselare, BELGIUM

 

I'm starting a new personal project about people who have a special connection with water. I still need to do a lot of testing before I start the actual project. That's why I went for a swim with my buddy Pieter who's training for his first triathlon

 

I realize that in this project I won't always be able to work with big strobes and assistants so I did a practice session with very limited gear: Olympus E-PL1 + 14-42 kitlens in an onderwater housing with an Inon S2000 underwaterflash on an arm attached to the housing. I shot this on manual with the flash on 1/2 power to get some fill light on Pieter. The flash is positioned almost on axis (slightly to camera left) about 40cm above the lens
