Take the example of looking at a subject and then looking at it with a torch shinning on it, the difference in the colours is starteling. We both know the colours are there however my camera doesn't, why cant I help it out?

Maybe a bit simplistic but thats my take on it.
I can understand it.... dont get me wrong (not trying to start a fight )..... and as they are your shots, you can do with them what you please.

Personally I try to avoid using editing tools to enhance a photo (i'm just curious to know other's point of view...)

Were you using a strobe underwater?

EDIT - BTW I do like how you have enhanced the photo it really does bring out the colours. I need to learn how to do more of this stuff me thinks!
