And with that plane wreck... artificial reef or? The way it looks broken up looks almost like a crash!

the ones that are really bad were from a dive i forgot my white balance card up on the boat. Some were from the same dive on a difrent day and they look better. That plane was a crash...theres a little airstrip just off the beach

Yah, the engine is missing and the wing broken off to the side. Sweet dive though.

Hey, you missed my question about color correcting your photos for ya...

Very nice, thanks for sharing.

You may need an underwater strobe to bring out more color but heres what I was able to do with what you had. If you want to do this on your own you can download Photoshop CS5. Use channel mixer and levels to correct the color. You can also check out instructional videos on www.youtube.com

Great shots!

After your correction Jack.. some of those shots look way way over processed.... very pixelated in some. The colors do look better... but the shot is lessened by the distractions.

Is that due to the low quality images perhaps.... or is it the filter? Photoshop?
