Is that due to the low quality images perhaps.... or is it the filter? Photoshop?

Underwater photography is really hard. Red light is filtered out by the water quickly so your images only contain green and blue spectrum without good lights/strobes. Photoshop allows you to color correct etc.... but ya it's small factors like you said, not the original file, no strobe, lights etc. I was just showing how he can improve the images with what he had.
