This lack of distance and this flatness combined with contrast, so character- 

 istic of the subaquatic photograph, are not real defects. They are rather truthful 

 representations of the conditions that actually obtain. To the photographer 

 accustomed only to photographs made on land they appear to be defects. To one 

 who knows the subaquatic landscape they are, from the artistic standpoint, sources 

 of beauty. From the scientific point of view they undoubtedly place limitations on 

 subaquatic photography.
