How to win underwater photo competitions

Article Summary:

DIVE Magazine have posted an article online by Dr Alex Mustard on ‘How to win underwater photo competitions’. 

According to Alex “I feel as if I am in quite an unusual position at the moment, as I sit on both sides of the fence. I judge a lot of major competitions each year, but unlike nearly all the folks I judge with, I also still enter photo competitions (obviously not the same ones - that would be too easy). I tried to write the article from both perspectives.”

And while it is written for the upcoming BUIF comp, it can be considered generic for most underwater photography competitions.  A great read for all those looking to submit photos throughout 2010.
