Very cool. I especially like how the fact that shes actually sitting on the foor makes it look like shes in the water so effortlessly, as if she could breathe underwater. Starts to make me feel like I wanter to be underwater XD lol Great job!!

Thank you!
That was actually part of the concept. It was really hard to get this "sitting pose".

This is a fine underwater image. The models pose and expression are spot on and I love the bubbles coming out her mouth. I's sharp as a tack and well composed and exposed.
Due to the way water absorbs different wavelenths of light at different rates it's left the skintones looking quite greenish though. This can be corrected by either
1. Use photoshop to change the tonal curves (just the model/clothes/hair)
2. Use an underwater strobe on an arm (2 are even better), that will resore the colours back to where they should be. On Camera flash is useless underwater, they need to be on arms.

Thank you!
I will try using masks to change the skincolor! Unfortunatly I don't have any underwater strobes. But I'll try to correct this with PS

Good luck, let me know how you go.
I've heard that shooting with a red filter works quite well too, but I've never tried it. I always use strobes.

Wonderful expression and pose, amazing coloring, the clothes fit with the whole... Even the hair and the bubbles turned out great!
Great model and photographer.
Another invitation to my Group...

I have an old camera case from my father - when I had the chance to get a pool for my own I packed my stuff and drove there
I never imagined how difficult it might be to stay underwater and take the pic - it is really difficult to coordinate that
