Underwater photos looking a little too blue or green? SeaLog can help bring the colours back to the surface. 馃摳馃た

Open any photo from Media and use Deep-Water Color Recovery to restore colours that fade as you go deeper.

Bring the colours back

  1. Open the Media tab and select the photo you want to edit.

  2. Choose Deep-Water Color Recovery from the adjustments at the bottom.

  3. Move the slider until the colours look right to you.

  4. Tap Reset anytime to return the adjustment to its original setting.

What does the water label mean?

SeaLog analyses the photo and gives you a clue about the underwater conditions it detects:

  • Already neutral 路 nothing to recover

  • Near the surface 路 light touch

  • Blue water 路 moderate

  • Green water 路 moderate

  • Deep blue water 路 strong

  • Deep green water 路 strong

Think of the suggested correction as a starting point, not a final answer. You can always turn the effect up or down with the slider until the photo feels right.

Less blue. More of what you actually saw down there.
