Calling a dive is not as easy as just giving the thumbs-up signal. There are steps to follow after the signal to cancel a dive. The dive briefing should cover these procedures, and the greater the dive’s potential risk, the more attention to detail the procedures and briefing should have to make calling the dive happen as safely as possible.
Fotografer bawah air terkadang mengacu pada zona air sempit di mana subjek membelah permukaan sebagai antarmuka Plimsoll. Di sini terdapat banyak kesempatan untuk pemotretan dinamis yang diperoleh dengan memiringkan kamera di atas atau di bawah garis air. Fotografer bawah air yang berdedikasi dan kreatif dapat menangkap bidikan split over-under tradisional dengan meniskus lurus standar dan pantulan dramatis dari bawah subjek, sinar matahari, atau keduanya sebagai bagian dari bidikan split yang dimodifikasi atau gambar sepenuhnya di bawah air.
Lebih dari 100 peserta magang selama lebih dari 20 tahun telah berpartisipasi dalam program magang DAN, bekerja dengan para mentor yang sudah mapan di bidang penelitian, mitigasi risiko, atau kedokteran untuk mendapatkan pengetahuan dan pengalaman profesional yang berharga sambil berkontribusi pada operasi DAN. Tahun ini, lima peserta magang melakukan perjalanan ke Durham, North Carolina, untuk berpartisipasi dalam program ini.

You are on the boat after a great dive when a buddy team surfaces, and one of them calls out for help. The boat crew helps get the distressed diver on board. Would you know what to do next? Whatever your level of dive training, or even if you are a nondiver dealing with an incident on land, DAN’s first aid training can help you know what to do and how to do it.
In 1995, when we first explored wunderpus territory, which overlies much of the Coral Triangle, the then-undescribed octopus’ fame had spread far and wide. The newly sensational creatures attained much of their acclaim for dancing like dandies across sandy seafloors on eight unimaginably limber arms — an eye-popping feat of acrobatic dexterity well worth traveling halfway around the world to see.
