Tidenham (19/12/2003)
The housing for my
Canon Powershot A70 digital camera arrived about six weeks ago after about two
months on the waiting list of Robert White Camera Specialists in Poole, Dorset. I'd
had one abortive attempt to try it out at Brixham a couple of weeks ago but the
visibility had been truly awful so I made time amidst the pre-Christmas panic to go
down to the
National Diving Centre
in Tidenham with Pete Fleming to find out whether my underwater photography skills
were as bad as they used to be when I was using celluloid. Click the first thumbnail
to appreciate just how delighted Pete was to be there with me! The thumbnail on the
right displays a diagram of the NDC dive site.
Unfortunately it seems that digital photography is no more forgiving than chemical
photography: out of thirty shots, only a handful were even reasonable: click on the
thumbnails below to see for yourself.
