I find that when I look up towards the surface, two things happen. I seem to lose my sense of orientation to some degree and may start feeling a little queazy. The other thing is that I tend to lose control of my buoyancy, also to some degree and sometimes not as bad as other times.
When I'm on the reef I seem not to really have a problem with being in all sorts of positions and I hang hang inverted with my face peeking under an overhang without problems. But when I look up towards the surface my head goes into a bit of a spin.
Is this common? I'm really hoping it will pass with more experience as it can be quite annoying. Sometimes I like to get a picture of something between me and the surface as it often provides a nice backdrop.
Are other divers also experiencing this?
