David Watson ​
Freediving Instructor & Underwater Photographer

​I am an AIDA & PADI Master freediving Instructor who is passionate about the oceans and all the amazing marine life I encounter. I love the challenge of taking photographs underwater while freediving on just one breath, which is the best way to capture the best moments while creating the least disturbance. I like to keep things simple and minimalist and mostly shoot using a compact camera with a wide angle lens and natural light.
​
I hope you enjoy my photographs
