MaureenSouza Ms. MODERATOR Something Spectacular!  More info | Sep 04, 2017 22:15 | #7 Awesome shots. We also went diving with sharks on the next island over, Moorea. A bit scary (we had 8 of them around us) but very thrilling. Life is hard...but I just take it one photograph at a time.

Decostanza Senior Member  More info | Nov 20, 2017 16:31 | #8 Excellent shots! If you have the rare pleasure to see a shark, at first it will give you a moment of pause the first time...after that it is a memorizing and magical experience to be in their environment. Again, great job!

Jan 05, 2018 02:27 | #11 I own a print lab and have a customer that brings their underwater photography in to my lab and everything is so cool (temperature) that the sharks always look blue. Do you set a custom WB for your shots or does your 70D on AWB get it right? I am having to color correct all of their images to make the sharks look correct. Do you have any advice I can give my customer? I have never shot under water so I am not quite sure what to tell them.

When we dive i white balance at depth against the sand or a writing slate. 60D, 'Kit Lens', Canon 70-200 f4 IS L, Canon 85 f1.8
