I'm tasked w/ a few shots underwater looking back up at the surface and was wondering if anybody has some tips or has done this successfully in the past. I'll need to do this for both daylight and night (moonlight)... Pretty much just looking for a bit of a direction or anything people have tried that has worked.

I've been toying w/ the ocean shader for getting a decent above water look - does this translate at all to underwater looking up?

thanks!

you could use the parti volume to create some interesting light rays beaming through the surface of the water.

it's not the rays or the volume - it's the surface of the water, that reflective/transparent/refractive looking up at the sky look...
