Underwater Photography is a fantastic book written by Tobias Friedrich. The book contains beautiful images, technical factors involving many images depicted in the book. He even has a few, what I call, “schematics” as to how the shot was taken, showing himself, the subject in a simple diagram. There’s even a Guest Photographer Gallery with works from other photographers, technical factors and their bio. Image editing is included at the end of the book. I commend Mr. Friedrich for putting so much into a book project. Overall, the book layout, publishing etc. were also done well. I look forward to seeing more books by this author. Thank you, Ed Bensen.
