Exposure: Zander Snape
By Pam Carroll on 03 October 2008
Photographer: Zander Snape
Shooting subjects: Surf, nature, sunsets
Equipment: Canon EOS 40D, Canon 50mm f/1.8 II, Canon 70-200mm f/4 L USM, Canon 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 L IS USM, Canon 17-40mm f/4 L USM, Tokina 10-17mm f/3.5-4.5 AT-X 107 DX fisheye, Manfrotto 680B monopod, Hoya Super HMC Pro 1 UV (o) 77mm filter, Hoya PRO1 digital Filter UV 67mm filter, Hoya CIR-polarizing 58mm filter, SPL water housing for Canon 40D with a dome port for 10-17mm fisheye.
Zander Snape loves the ocean and surfs most days when he can fit it in, but he always wanted to capture those moments. After honing his photography skills shooting on land for a couple of years, he bought his first water housing and considers it the best thing ever. He loves being a part of the action in the water while still capturing the photos.
Zander is currently studying a Bachelor of Visual Arts at Sydney College of the Arts, hoping to make a career out of his photography. A keen nature photographer, he's currently expanding his portfolio beyond the beach. To see more of Zander's work, visit zanderphotography.com.au.
This was my second shoot with my new water housing. The surfer is my graphic designer Brad Walker from Avante Creative. It is taken using a Tokina 10-17mm fisheye on focal length of 10mm. Whenever I'm in the water I shoot with an aperture of about f/9 — this image was taken on f/9 at 1/2000. It was a really fun swim.
