Photography at Sea

Price: £19.99

‘Photography at Sea’: Techniques for capturing Amazing Photographs Afloat, does exactly what it says on the tin!  It contains an incredible collection of photographs by that master of nautical photography Patrick Roach. He describes in detail how he obtained many of the shots in the book. The narrative is augmented with clear and concise practical hints and tips for the amateur photographer using a digital camera.

Barter’s picture editing gives us a book that is a visual joy and inspires us to take a camera on our next voyage and always have it to hand for that unexpected moment. We may not be able to emulate Roach’s eye or expertise but if we attempt the techniques, so very well described in this volume, we will take much better pictures and, who knows, there may be another Roach lurking in the cockpit of some Cruising Association yacht.

‘Photography at Sea’ is a manual that should be used as a text book by any aspiring yachtsman who wants to record his boating highlights and share them with others. Thanks for telling us the secrets Patrick and watch out for a new wave of marine photographers landing on the beach.
