What
is a Super course?
A
SuperCourse is a week of photo immersion with the best
photo help in the world; you get structured instruction
mixed with laughs, inspiration and individual help all
day long and you are surrounded by others who share
your interest. Classes are limited to 14 and are taught
by Cathy at Cathy Church's Underwater Photo Centre at
Sunset
House
in Grand Cayman (in the Caribbean, south of Cuba.) Beginner?
-- just right for you. Experienced?-- perfect
for you, too. We teach ALL cameras. For information
on who should take this course and course structure
and content, click on "Syllabus" above.
I
have been teaching these courses for over thirty years,
and they just keep getting better .I have put all of
the slide shows onto DVD, we have computer stations
to help with the digital cameras, and we still process
E-6 film for the film shooters.
It's
not just a course; it's a wonderful vacation.
We
have the world's best services and the best instruction.
Our high repeat rate says it all--you'll learn and have
a lot of fun too. We continue to get rave reviews about
our incredible service. Click

There
is no excuse for not taking this course if you want to
take better photographs underwater. (Well, having a baby
could be an excuse, so could having three kids in college,
but the rest of you don't have an excuse, so get down
here.)
Special
Cathy Church Dive Service--must read
Imagine
three-hour dives
where you can come to the stern of the boat and call
out for a film, memory card, lens or battery change.
While the photo instructor is tending to your
camera, you enjoy a snack
and a cool drink, and the dive crew is getting you a full
SCUBA tank. Meanwhile, another instructor and Cathy Church
(that’s me) are available underwater to help you
when you personally to make sure you get help where it
counts. There is no place else in the world where you
get service like this!
Why
Take a Photo Course?
It’s faster and easier than teaching yourself,
and our diving style allows you to take more pictures
per dive than you can anywhere else!
The
courses are truly multi-level -- I start with my famous
introduction: "This is the front of the camera and
this is..." In the water, 
each
photographer sets his own goals and progresses at
his own pace. I
personally teach everything
from composition and maintenance, to digital menus, metering,
using flash, multiple strobe lighting, wide-angle and
close-ups, SLR and digital. We'll do wreck, fish, wall,
grotto, reef, night and Stingray City dives. I will also
add lots of information on post digital image processing
for both film and digital cameras.
