About the instructors:
Mariusz Milka
I am a teacher and diving instructor. I have been involved in photography for about 20 years. In the past, I led a photography club for young people. At that time, we were still developing photos taken on black and white film. Then I switched to digital photography and photographed a lot during my travels into several parts of the world. I also completed a course on working with digital photography at one of British universities and a course in using photography for storytelling by National Geographic. Besides photography.
Ewelina Heil
I am a marine biologist, teacher and a scuba diving instructor. I started my adventure with photography many years ago from documenting nature, especially animals. Over time, my passion evolved into travel and, of course, underwater photography. I traveled and photographed many places around the world. In my work, I do not pay much attention to the equipment. I photograph with what I have at hand. If I don’t have a camera, I’ll take a picture with my phone. My photos have been published in the press, used in the documentation of scientific research, as well as in museums.
