Mohammed Saad Ahmed 10/25/2021 4:22 AMWater conducts heat around 25 times more efficiently than air. Hypothermia, a potentially fatal condition, occurs when the human body's core temperature falls below 35 °C. Insulating the body's warmth from water is the main purpose of diving suits and exposure suits when used in water temperatures below 25 °C. -
Mohammed Saad Ahmed 10/21/2021 8:50 AMThere are three layers of ocean temperature: the surface layer, the thermocline, and the deep ocean. The average temperature of surface layer is about 17 °C. About 90% of ocean's water is below the thermocline in the deep ocean, where most of the water is below 4 °C -

Mohammed Saad Ahmed 10/15/2021 3:52 AMA snoot is a tube used to direct the illumination from the flash to a very restricted area, strongly illuminating the area of focus and leaving the surroundings relatively dark. It is used to selectively illuminate the subject to give dark backgrounds and a brightly lit subject. It is easier to use if the flash has an integral modeling light so the photographer can see how the illumination will be distributed during exposure. A snoot with the opening placed close to the subject at an angle can virtually eliminate backscatter. -
Mohammed Saad Ahmed 10/13/2021 3:47 AMA modeling light is a low intensity light used to compose the picture when flash is intended for illumination. I allows a better view of the subject for focusing and framing the shot. but does not provide enough light to interfere with the flash illumination. Some flash units have integral modeling lights, otherwise a diffuse low power dive light may work well for close up work.
