Rod's Bio & Course Outline


Digital Workshops for underwater photographers is one of our specialties. Over the past few years, it seems that many have jumped on the bandwagon and now offer workshops in various locations. However, thanks to Wayne Hasson of the Aggressor Fleet, we were the first to offer Digital Workshops on a regular basis.

We have offered workshops on many Aggressor vessels, including Belize, Bay Islands, Kona, Palau, Truk and Cayman. Other destinations have included Kungkungan Bay Resort, North Sulawesi; Ocean Rover Liveaboard, Thailand, and Beneath The Sea.

Whether a complete beginner or professional, our workshops can take your digital underwater photos to the next level. All workshops include all aspects of imagemaking including nightly critiques. In addition, the use of Photoshop CS3 as the Digital Darkroom is emphasized. If you take one of our workshops you will learn more than you ever thought possible.

Take a look in on Publications page for our Scuba Diving Australasia, Asian Diver & Fathoms Magazine articles on Digital Photography.
