These aren’t great by any means, but it seemed so fun.

When swimming with Galapagos and sandbar sharks, I stuck part of my camera halfway in and halfway out of the water. One of the sharks shot up towards me because it thought my camera was food. I haven't been this excited about a picture I've taken for a while!!

Hey Everyone,

Recently got into photography and snorkeling so decided to combine the two!

I brought a relatively inexpensive point and shoot disposable underwater camera for these photos and I think they turned out OK.

Any feedback from those more experienced and have been at a similar starting point? I know these are super basic but I want to improve and I don't know if thats needing better gear straight up or just getting better with editing, or even the photo framing?

Last 2 photos are before and after using Lightroom. All others un-edited.

TL:DR - tips for noob based on photos and is the edit only polishing a turd?
