On a recent dive to the SAS Good Hope, I performed an experiment I’ve long intended to do. I photographed (roughly – allowing for drifting!) the same thing, with and without the flash on my camera turned on.
The same scene with the flash on reveals that the gorgeous indigo soft coral is in fact bright pink, and the sea urchin has colour in his spines.
If this doesn’t persuade you to dive with a torch on deep dives, I don’t know what will!
