not too bad at all for a first attempt, nice light from surface look

the sand would be tinted blue though and maybe add some particles at various levels of focus to give the feeling of a living life filled expanse. Also helps to build depth

Not bad. Don't use the plastic wrap filter. The ground would still look bluish because it is under the water. It is too brown. The water is toooooooo blue. Pick a more natural color. Look at real underwater images for colors. Overall, not bad. Nice shark, Did you draw it?
