Not everyone can afford to
complement their underwater camera with
external strobes. But shooting anything further than a meter or so away
without external strobes often results in monochrome blue (or green)
images. However, with the addition of a simple, affordable filter,
things don't need to be so dull.
Even for those who do own a strobe, using filters offer an interesting alternative to traditional underwater images. Here are some tips on shooting with filters:
