You always have something like that in the back of your mind. Over the past ten years of commercial diving Ive had a few dodgy moments ie out of air, hat filling up with water and inchs from being crushed by a boat. They all kind of teach you a certain awareness and to anticipate things like that happening, or to be prepared for anything.
I have two models sorted to do a shoot at the botanical gardens I did the framed shots for. Its all sorted apart from the dates they are free. lol
