Ya, great shots! Are you using a filter of some sort?

Thanks. No filters

Shot with flash which I find pops a little colour.
Post processed with camera raw set to auto. Then auto toned in PS and I set the black point in Levels. That's it for colour.

I also spend as much time that's needed in each image with the healing brush to clone out ant bits of floating debris in the water. This process can take forever depending on the amount of marine snow. That's why its important to shut off all the pumps when photographing a tank.

That easy huh?

I find PS difficult sometimes.... many options you need to "know" about.

My wife is a graphic designer and she tries to teach me PS. Black point levels, can make a huge difference.

Nice.

I wonder... does anyone care enough to read signatures if you make them really small? I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.
