Check out Terry’s Photos

Take a moment to check out Terry’s photos!

Two of Terry’s favorite things to do all wrapped up together – scuba diving and photography… and it shows!

Terry took an underwater photography class while he was diving in Puerta Galera, Philippines. This is something he’s wanted to do for a long time. Apparently, Atlantis has an excellent photographer on staff. The staff photographer spent time with Terry teaching him how to use his macro lens underwater. Terry found that he had been taking “tourist snapshots” and not really being a photographer underwater.

He has since learned how to compose his pictures and to “fill the lens” with the subject.

Simply beautiful.
