Seahorses are ideal subjects for portrait-style images since they have great character and interesting eyes. By using the SeaLife 6+ Macro Lens on the SportDiver Housing, you can capture the details with clarity and reduce the minimum focusing distance. Be still and careful not to distract the animal so you can capture a curious expression from it.        

 

Equipment: iPhone 16 Pro Max in a SeaLife SportDiver Ultra housing, 1x iPhone lens with one SeaDragon 3000F Color Boost Photo-Video light, SportDiver Lens Adapter & SeaLife +6 Macro lens
