hi Guys, I'm not a photographer or diver- but a bass fisherman, and am currently trying to understand the relationship between light, depth, TIR etc...and using lures to catch bass. Im getting there but have one particular Q that is bugging me, and you guys might be able to help.
Why is red light the first to disappear with depth?
a quick Google suggests this is due to absorbtion, not refraction- but how can this be when red light has better penetration in say foggy air than other wavelengths? (that's why tail/fog light are red on your car )
Thanks H
