Siren Fleet to run a Fiji underwater photo workshop with Joseph Tepper in June
The Siren Fleet is a keen supporter of underwater photography and each of their yachts is designed to accommodate the underwater photographer’s needs. Each Siren yacht has dedicated preparation areas, storage drawers, several charge points, large rinse tanks, and a central computer to edit a hard day’s work as well as a large plasma TV to view and share photos and videos of the cruise.
Throughout the whole year they have a wide selection of escorted underwater photography workshops, hosted by well-known underwater photographers and videographers who provide their guests with the opportunity to develop and improve their photography skills in a variety of destinations.
On the 11th -21st June 2015, the Siren Fleet will be running a new underwater photography workshop, specialising in wide-angle photography, hosted by Joseph Tepper in Fiji on board the Fiji Siren.
Whether you want to learn the basics of wide-angle or master advanced techniques, this workshop is just for you. Joe will deliver a number of seminars on different types of underwater photography techniques such as how to create motion in your images as well as giving some post production tips and tricks in Photoshop. He will also spend some time with each guest to help improve particular underwater photography skills.
The colorful Fijian reefs and their large number of schooling pelagics will provide you with many opportunities to practice what has been learned during the classes and seminars, as well as improving your skills on every single dive.
Joseph Tepper is an award-winning photojournalist, specialising in underwater photography. Despite his young age, Joseph is currently the Associate Editor for Divephotoguide.com and Scuba Diver-Through the Lens, the world’s first global underwater photo magazine. His pictures and articles from all his international trips have been featured in numerous publications such as Scuba Diving, Sport Diver, Scuba Diver-Australasia and California Diver.
“Built by divers for divers”, the Siren Fleet yachts feature individually air conditioned cabins with en-suite facilities and plenty of space for you to relax and enjoy your time onboard. Siren Fleet offers 4 Guided Dives per day in small groups with free scuba equipment rental and Nitrox; all of this surrounded by professional, experienced and friendly crew.

Over the next 12 months, specialist scuba holiday company Dive Worldwide will be supporting Bite-Back Shark & Marine Conservation with donations collected from client bookings to any one of its stunning dive destinations around the world. The independently-owned operator expects to raise £3000 for the UK charity.
Manager at Dive Worldwide, Phil North, said: “We’re especially excited to work with Bite-Back and support its intelligent, creative and results-driven campaigns to end the UK trade in shark products and prompt a change in attitudes to the ocean’s most maligned inhabitant.”
Bite-Back is running campaigns to hold the media to account on the way it reports shark news along with a brand new nationwide education programme. Last year the charity was credited for spearheading a UK ban on the import and export of shark fins.
Campaign director at Bite-Back, Graham Buckingham, said: “We’re enormously grateful to Dive Worldwide for choosing to support Bite-Back. The company’s commitment to conservation helps set it apart from other tour operators and we’re certain its clients admire and respect that policy. For us, the affiliation is huge and helps us look to the future with confidence we can deliver against key conservation programmes.”
To launch the fundraising initiative, Phil North presented Graham Buckingham with a cheque for £1,000.
