BIO OF ANDY MURCH

 
 ELASMOBRANCHS

Not just Shark Pictures: Elasmodiver contains photos of sharks, skates, rays, and chimaera's from around the world. It began as a simple web based field guide to help divers find the best places to encounter different species of sharks and rays but it has slowly evolved into a much larger project containing information on all aspects of shark diving and photography. There are now more than a thousand shark pictures  and sections on shark evolution, biology, and conservation. There is a large library of reviewed shark books, a constantly outdated shark taxonomy page, a monster list of shark links, and deeper in the site there are numerous articles and stories about shark encounters. Elasmodiver is now so difficult to check for updates, that new information and pictures are listed on an Elasmodiver Updates Page that can be accessed here:

This expansion of Elasmodiver is in its first stages but will eventually include pages on all types of marine mammals, bony fishes and marine invertebrates as well as coastal habitats, reefscapes and other imagess relating to the ocean. Please return regularly to enjoy the progress.

Sign up for the next Tiger Beach Photography Workshop

April 14-20 2012

 

DO YOU WANT TO DIVE LEGENDARY TIGER BEACH?

Tiger Beach is the best place in the world to enjoy up close encounters with huge Tiger Sharks. Tiger Beach is also the best place to swim in a swirling mass of large photogenic Lemon Sharks sometimes 30 or 40 strong.

 

Learn how to shoot:

 

SUN SPLASHES

 

AERIAL SHOTS

 

OVER / UNDERS

 

CLOSE UPS

 

 

DO YOU WANT TO LEARN TO SHOOT SHARKS LIKE A PRO?

 

IMAGINE THIS OPPORTUNITY: You're kneeling on the sand right next to the shark handler while tiger and lemon sharks circle expectantly. A huge tiger swims so close to your camera that it barely fits in your view finder. It's bulk blots out the sun. You compose your shot and fire repeatedly until the shadow moves away and your heart beat begins to slow down.

 

THIS IS YOUR CHANCE!

 

Learn the basics or perfect your skills

Whether you're a novice looking for your first amazing images or a veteran shooter ready to hone your craft, this trip is for you. If you're not a shooter you're still welcome to enjoy daily shark image slide shows and presentations. Tiger Beach is the pinnacle of shark diving in the Bahamas - no one comes home feeling the same about these magnificent animals.

 

Shoot in Different environments

Shooters will also have the opportunity to work with a professional model, shoot sharks at night and shoot in a dynamic reef setting.

 

Learn the secrets of post production workflow

Learn how to tweak your images to make them jump off the screen and learn how to prepare them for commercial submission.

 

TIMING IS KEY!

We will be heading to Tiger Beach from April 2nd to the 8th.

We are scheduling the first workshop for April when we have a good chance of also seeing Great Hammerheads. Shooting hammers will be an amazing bonus if we can find them! The workshop will include five days of diving (weather depending) with lemons and tigers. Seven days round trip from Palm Beach, FL.

 

Join Photojournalist Andy Murch on the Shark Shoot of the year at Tiger Beach!
