Led by Scott Gietler and Vijay Raman, Bluewater conducted a very successful photo workshop in La Paz in October 2014 with La Concha and The Cortez Club. Diving La Paz did not disappoint with numerous sightings of whale sharks, swims with playful dolphins and amazing encounters with sea lions. Big animal encounters coupled with large schools of fish, beautiful reef scapes and bright sunshine allowed trip participants lots of practice with wide angle photography and ambient light photography.

Below is a sampling of some photographs from our trip participants.
