Get ready to pack your bags! Let’s take a trip and seek out some clear waters where we can capture shots like this.
Called over-unders, split-shots, or just splits, this photographic technique helps you see both what’s inside the water and outside of it at the same time. The lens (usually fisheye) is positioned half above the water and half below the water. If you’re inspired to try this out yourself, you can find out what gear you’ll need along with some useful tips at the Underwater Photography Guide and Dive Photo Guide.
Here, then, are 20+ photos that we hope you’ll think about the next time you’re planning a vacation. How amazing would it be to bring home pictures like this?
