New on 500px : Static For A Second by jimpattersonphotography by jimpattersonphotography

“Static for a Second”

Photographing underwater is challenging enough. There is all the equipment, the movement of the water, the limited air supply, etc, etc.

And then you have anemonefish.

At first glance, they seem to be an easy subject. They stay around their anemone and don’t stray far from it. Great! But…they almost never stop swimming. Dashing and darting to and fro, it can be a fool’s errand to try and track them with your camera. Instead, it often works out better to simply find a composition in the folds of the anemone and wait for a little “nemo” to rest for a brief moment in your frame.
