Many photographers have pro-level setups, and may not want to be bothered by new photographers. UWPhotographyguide.com is meant to be an online resource for all underwater photographers irrespective of level; to be accessible for more photographers and divers. UWPhotographyguide.com is the very first free online underwater photography guide. This guide is now at least 300 pages long, and it seems like there is still so much more to write about! If Scott can get more people interested in underwater photography, and keep them in the hobby, then they too can make a difference educating the world about the habitat underwater and preserving the unique animals that live there. If there are more people taking photos that they want to share, it's going to drive interest in scuba diving and preserving our world's oceans.
