After seeing some of the nice loking underwater scenes from 'Titanic' I wanted to try to do some of my own, Part of the problem with making it look realisting is the fact that the submersible would have to carry all the lighting for the scene, so most of it would be hidden. The atmosphere helps this a geat deal since the backscatter from lights in the far side of the hull give the sub a sillouette which clearly defines its shape. ...
