Press release

The Durban Undersea Club (DUC) Shootout aims to create a forum where underwater video and still photographers can compete against one another, and at the same time, expose their favorite dive sites in Southern Africa!

The DUC Shootout is open to all marine photographic or video enthusiasts at all levels -from the novice with the simplest camera and housing, to the dedicated photographer or videographer. As long as the image/video was captured during the set-out shooting period (1 December 2014 to the 3 May 2015) and taken in the ocean from Mozambique to the Cape, it will be eligible for judging on 16 and 17 May 2015.

The DUC Shootout is in celebrating its 5th year and is now considered one of the top underwater photography competitions in South Africa and the premier underwater photography event of the future.
