2nd Trieste International Underwater Photography Competition

Sobota je prinesla obisk Trsta in okolice. Ampak gremo malce nazaj. 2024 sva se z Robijem udeležila, čisto po naključju čistilne akcije v organizaciji Mare Nordest Trieste. Le-ta je neprofitna organizacija. Dejansko ne vem kaj več, ker je vse v italijanščini in sem malce len, da bi raziskoval dalje. Takrat se mi je ekipa dopadla in to je bil povod za letošnji obisk: 2nd Trieste International Underwater Photography Competition.

Glede na, to da so dogodek organizirali že lani in mi dejansko kar precej “najedali” naj pripeljem kakega fotografa iz Malte. Malta je res, da bogata država v smislu potapljanja. Glede na to da sem bil tam devetkrat po mojem štetju so italijani dobili idejo, da bi jim “pripeljal” kakega fotografa na njihov event. Kakor sem kasneje na dogodku videl je udeležba v večji meri domača in jim manjka mednarodna udeležba. Žal se ideja ni uresničla, sem se pa dogodka udeležil sam v kategoriji smartphone.

Za mene je to prva taka udeležba nasploh. Nekako sem imel podvodno fotografijo bolj za svojo dušo, v preteklosti, za objavo na moji “komercialni” spletni strani. A je lani zaradi obilice fotk galerija enostavno odpovedala. Na koncu pa sem se spoznal s tekomovanjem in kako le-to deluje.

Vsi skupaj smo naredili potop ob 9:00 na lokaciji Brojenca. Ko se potopim, ugotovim, da bo tole ena sama jeba. Vidljivost katastrofa in prazno morsko dno. Vem, da imajo vsi tekmovalci iste pogoje, a vseeno, za vse je bilo težko. Najti zanimiv motiv, ga pravilno osvetliti in tako dalje. Pred nekaj dnevi sem nadgradil Divevolk ohišje s primernimi držali, kot tudi z novo podvodno lučjo. Zato je bil to sploh prvi potop s celotnim setom. No ni mi delal težav, saj sem podobno konfiguracijo že uporabljal na Olympus TG5, ki ga je lansko leto odneslo med potopom v toku.

Tekmovanje poteka po načelu, da mora vsak izmed nas poslikati slike v kategorijah:
RIBA
ŠIROKI KOT
MAKRO

Glavne kategorije nad temi pa so glede na tip kamere:
DSLR
kompakt
smartphone

Na začetku je kazalo prekleto slabo. Ampak iz zgodovine, kjer sem slikal reportažno s DSLR Canon 7, sem imel v glavi vedno idejo, da brez fotk ne smeš priti domov. Isto sem si rekel na tekmovanju. Plaval sem uro in pol, nekako pravih motivov res ni bilo. Najlepši se mi je zdel klobučnjak, ki je kar priplaval od nekje 😉 Videl sem ga v slabi vidljivosti in kot sem videl kasneje, sem bil skoraj edini.

Vseeno sem “nastrelil” zadosti slik po moji oceni. Vseeno sem imel meglo znotraj ohišja, kar sem videl po petih minutah potopa. Objektivi so bili sicer na suhem, a očitno bo potrebno podmazati gumico, da bo ostajala voda zunaj ohišja. Fotke nastreljene na tekmi in malce spuščene čez Adobe LR pa spodaj.
