Snorkeling in Aruba!




Sure, this is out of order, but that's because I just received the developed underwater pictures. These photos are from our snorkeling excursion at Baby Beach in Aruba! The bottom photo is me.

The extra blue-green color in the photographs is due to the light refraction underwater -- bright colors like red, purple, and pink fade first, and the blues, greens, and yellows fade last. Where there is better visability, there is more color. (I have snorkeled in Minnesota, and you're lucky to see 5 feet and everything is dark gray-green.)
