Abstract:
Underwater photography is one of the most demanding types of photography. An underwater photographer must be a good diver and photographer. Because the physical properties of water are different from aerial ones, it is very difficult to make a technically good image underwater. It takes a lot of patience and time for a technically and compositionally good shot to become a good photo. However, the work of an underwater photographer does not end with coming out of the water, because even on dry land he has a lot of work to do with maintaining fitness, equipment and documenting shots. Modern pedagogy treats photography as an artistic technical science. Underwater photography is a very interesting experience for children. Children are very receptive to novelties and quickly learn new things. Elementary school students acquire certain skills in the photo club. Very rarely, however, do they have the opportunity to gain new experience and knowledge about underwater photography in practice, therefore also underwater. In the research, I wanted to find out if underwater photography could be feasible with students outside of school. The research proved to be very successful. The students achieved positive results despite the more difficult conditions of underwater creation. The influence of the environment (Pristan swimming pool) has obviously contributed to exceptional motivation and a relaxed working atmosphere. Therefore, I do not see any obstacle to conducting a photo circle even outside of school.
