Alternative Underwater Photography

Photo Majors,

A good friend of mine sent me this link today and I think you all will be interested. It involves a Holga camera and a home made underwater casing. Take a look at the images that this photographer has made with his underwater Holga! Quite amazing!

Pay special attention to his prints, although we will not be printing Palladium, it is a similar process to Van Dyke and Cyanotype. He also utilizes digital negatives which is something we will explore a little later this year.
