diagonal lines are strong compositional elements for u/w imagery

This image of two nudibranchs preparing to mate has a diagonal line running through the center which serves a leading line that draws the eye into the subject. The dark background adds depth to the the image. I used two strobes. The one on the left side was 2 f-stops stronger than the strobe on the right creating a nice light ratio.

Composition, lighting, and buoyancy skills are three of the most important elements of u/w photography. If interested in taking a workshop that concentrates on the skills check out
