Capturing Critters in Lembeh Underwater Photography Workshop 2022
Capturing Critters in Lembeh is back for the 10th year running in 2022 and we are going DOUBLE!! That’s right, in 2022 we are holding two Capturing Critters events back to back! We cannot believe that 10 years have passed since we started out with the seed of an idea to host an underwater photography workshop hosted by not one but three professional underwater photographers working together. We never anticipated 10 years ago that this would become the iconic event which it is today.
To mark the 10th anniversary we will, of course, be hosting three more world-class Photo Pros who will be with us for both workshops: Erin Quigly, Joel Penner, and Jennifer Penner. The week-long workshops will be packed with incredible diving, presentations from the Pro’s and one on one instruction and feedback.
Our 2022 double schedule is as follows:
Workshop 1:
• Pre-Workshop: January 12-15 (time to relax and unwind after traveling and enjoy some of Lembeh’s famous dive sites.)
• Workshop: January 15-22 (Capturing Critters in Lembeh 10th Annual Workshop)
• Wide Angle Workshop: January 22-24 (Capturing Critters Workshop Extension)
Workshop 2:
• Pre-Workshop: January 24-26 (time to relax and unwind after traveling and enjoy some of Lembeh’s famous dive sites.)
• Workshop: Janary 26- February 2 (Capturing Critters in Lembeh 10th Annual Workshop)
• WideAngle Workshop: February 2-5 (Capturing Critters Workshop Extension)
Our three visiting Pros will be working alongside our full time, in-house Photo Pro James Emery, as well as our marine biology and underwater photography trained team of Dive Guides. With such an incredible team behind you, you’ll be taking home some of your best images to date. No matter what level of photographer or videographer you are, you’ll learn how to take your underwater imaging to the next level. Whether you are diving with a compact camera, bringing a totally new camera set up with you, or an advanced DSLR you’ll learn how to get the best shots possible from your system.
