For shots like these, black and white works well IMHO. If it were color it would be black and various shades of blue anyway.

I've found that certain Underwater Images lend themselves to B&W especially if they dont have the bright corals or fishes in them

Thanks. It is amazing the number of shots that I look at that are OK but when I render them in BnW and they are nice.
