Photographer: Sophie Sanfacon
Location: Canada Vancouver Island, B.C./C.-B.Rough Skin newt portrait.
I took this picture with breathhold as my second visit to this lake.
This smaller newt was curious about its reflection in the camera dome port. The first summer I tried to picture newts, I had so much challenges to find them, approach them and mostly getting the proper setting for lakes as I usually do underwater photography in the ocean. I also had to learn to adjust all my settings ( strobes positions and strength , the camera manual setting) and learn to time my outings for less turbidity.
