The descent

Why do underwater photos lose their colors?

Water doesn't treat every color equally. As sunlight travels deeper, the water absorbs the warmest wavelengths first — red begins to fade within the first few meters, followed by orange and then yellow.

A short way down, most of that warm light is simply gone, leaving the blues and greens that give underwater photos their familiar flat cast. It isn't your camera — the color was filtered out before the light ever reached the lens.

Approximate light penetration in clear tropical water. Warm colors are absorbed first — which is why everything below the surface drifts toward blue.

Field notes

Frequently asked questions

Why do underwater photos look blue?
As you go deeper, water absorbs the warm end of the spectrum first — red, then orange and yellow — leaving mostly blue and green light. That shift is what gives underwater photos their blue or green cast.
Can AI restore underwater photos?
Yes. JellyFix analyzes how the water shifted your colors and rebuilds a natural-looking image. It works best when the photo still holds some color detail — it rebalances what was captured rather than inventing what the water removed.
Does JellyFix work offline?
Yes. Photos are processed right on your device, so you can restore them without an internet connection — and your images never leave your phone.
Which cameras are supported?
Any underwater camera. JellyFix works with photos from action cameras like GoPro, DJI, and Insta360, waterproof compacts, and mirrorless or DSLR cameras from Sony, Canon, and Nikon.
Does JellyFix support RAW photos?
JellyFix works with standard photo files — JPEG and HEIC — which is what most phones and cameras already save. If you shoot RAW, export or convert to JPEG or HEIC first, then open it in JellyFix and it will restore the color at full resolution, entirely on your device.
