When shooting corals, it’s important to have powerful underwater lighting with a high color rendering like the Sea Dragon 3000F to be able to capture all the colors of the reef.
Shoot the image when the fish are around the reef, like these Anthias, swimming closely out of the corals preferably in one direction. Shoot several exposures so you’ll capture the best moment.
