Korčula - Croatia Vlog
I start the day off at the typical swim stop.
The struggle of holding my breath, lining up the shot and then the pressure on my ears did not make this shot easy. Everybody has see amazing underwater photography. But no one really knows the struggle of achieving a great photo underwater. I have yet to scuba dive, so I can not say the challenge in that, but with free diving, it is exhausting. I would like to think that I am a fairly decent swimmer, but when it comes to holing my breath, I cannot hold it as long as I would like to.
I had the gorpo setup so that it was shooting a continuous photo every second. Since it is shooting so fast, I also had the picture profile set to a flat profile because RAW is not an option. The issue with shooting in this burst mode is that once the gopro has started shooting, the screen goes black, so the whole time I am just blind firing hoping to get something. And because of this blind fire, I need to attempt taking the photo a ton of times because I needed more luck on my side than usual.
We then port at the island of Korčula and our first excursion was a buggy tour with Korčula Buggy
So everybody loads up in these buggies while our guide that was leading us was in a smart car.......... In the beginning, I was getting frustrated because I was wondering where this smart car was going to take us because it should not be able to do pretty much anything off road. We were just driving on asphalt for a while and I had no idea why we even had to be in these buggies if were were only going to drive on pavement. Well, eventually we did get to some gravel road and started going in the back country. I was not expecting to do anything crazy off road, but at least this back country is what I expected to see. I was actually surprised to see the smart car still leading us through these roads because I would think that the rough terrain would not be good for the suspension.
I do not want to spoil of exactly what we did on the tour because that is something that you would have to go see for yourself. But we ended up seeing great landscape, a vineyard along with a couple of historical sites that our guide was knowledgeable on.
Close to the end of the tour, we stopped at a local beach where the adults stayed at the bar while I went down to the water and saw an image that I wanted to capture. Lately, I have been fascinated with abstract water photos and I saw that there was a bunch of rocks in the water while the sun was directly overhead. So I wanted to see what it would look like if I was exposing for the brightness of the reflection of the sun.
I probably took about 1000 photos trying to get a decent photo. It was hard to see the screen on my camera because I had the camera close to the water and I could not lay down to see the image. So this was similar to the mornings gopro photo issue of not being able to see the screen except I was able to see it just enough to compose a shot. I was trying different methods of manually focusing, auto focus, different angles close focus, etc. The photos I ended up with are about 80% there for me. Some of them the focus was just slightly off, or the composition was off.
After the tour, we had a feast of home cooked food waiting for us from grandma that is part of the company. The company is family owned and it was the best food I have had this whole trip. There was home made wine, crepe with apples, candied orange peels, bread and fruit. I would honestly book the tour again just for the food. It was honestly that good. With all of that in mind, I would definitely recommend anyone that is interested in this to go and do it if you are on Korčula.
I then headed out to take some photos during sunset and let me tell you, this was one of my favorite days to take photos. About 5 min across the island from where our boat was docked, there was another boat dock that had aggressive water. I love this kind of stuff because it can create a moody image. I first started off shooting with my X-T30 and the 10-24 f/4. I was trying to get a shot where the water was crashing into the concrete and rising up. I also wanted to be as close as..............

Europe's Most Extreme Adventures -- The Excursions of Sail Croatia Cruises
Experience some of Europe's best excursions with Sail Croatia. From buggy safaris to kayaking to, wreck diving and more. Click SHOW MORE below for a full list of excursions.
Rafting: Join the jolly team of river rafters and discover the Cetina River -- the original pirate's nest. The Cetina, which runs from the hinterland through the mountains and into the coastal town of Omis, housed the Med's most famous band of pirates. Today the Cetina is home to some medium-grade white water rafting. For hundreds of years they thrived on holding laden merchant ships for ransom passing up the coast on their way to Venice.
Buggy Safari: A real tour with a difference! Jump in a 2-seater, 200cc buggy and drive around the vineyards, coves and beaches of Korcula to explore parts of the island most visitors never get to see. Stop-off for snorkelling and at excellent photo-op spots.
Kayaking: Jump in a 2-man kayak and explore the coves and coast around Korcula Island with a local instructor. Croatia is paradise for kayaking of all levels -- beginner, intermediate or advanced. Grab your paddle and a few tips on technique and you're off!
Dubrovnik Walking Tour: Discover the beauties and treasures of the old town streets and monuments of Dubrovnik -- the Pearl of the Adriatic. Listen to stories from your local Croatian guide that take you back through the city's history and learn about the stories and legends that lie hidden behind the ornate facades.
Discovery Dive: If you want to have your first scuba diving experience then this Discovery Dive is for you -- we take care of everything. After a quick talk with the instructor & watching a short video, to ensures the main principles are understood, it's time to enter the shallow water on the nearby beach. Each instructor takes maximum two people and looks after them for the entire dive, which takes between 20 to 30 minutes. Once back on the surface, you will be transferred back to Makarska.
Wreck Diving: This dive is for certified divers only and is very rewarding. Dive over the torpedo boat, which lies at 26m, and see its well-preserved metal construction including anti-aircraft guns and torpedoes still in their tubes. It is a haven for marine life - a man-made reef with sponges, algae and fish.
Mostar & Bosnia Day Trip: Mostar is a city of contrasts: wide avenues, narrow streets, the traditional Turkish bazaar and Parisian-style boulevards - a city in which the culture and art of the east and west meet. The most magnificent monument is the Stari Most (Old Bridge), built in 1566 according to the plans of Hayruddin, the master Turkish architect and builder. When the Stari Most collapsed after sustained tank shelling in 1993 it was like the heart was ripped out of most Mostar natives. Now, more than a decade later, the beautiful stone structure that had spanned the Neretva River for over four centuries once again arches across its enchanting waters.
Montenegro Day Trip: A tiny Mediterranean pearl, unique in many ways, and a place that will take your breath away. From Dubrovnik you will have the opportunity to visit Montenegro for a day and discover that this small country is filled with natural beauty. Explore the best of the Montenegrin coast -- all in one day!
Wine Tasting Tour: Get the low-down on Hvar's wine culture. Sample 3 wines and local cheese and olives in the middle of Hvar Island's famous AGER winefield.
Sail Croatia Live: After a day touring Dubrovnik you'll be ready to kick up your heels and party the night away with cover songs from some of your favourite artists. Even if dancing isn't for you, this band will have you on your feet!
