[QUOTE="Moab Man, post: 99165, member: 11881"] Feedback appreciated. I am trying to photographically capture all the cool occupants that live inside of my saltwater aquarium in the best pictures I can achieve. These little fans are probably my favorite and not easily accessed due to where they have decided to set up camp. Lighting is also a nightmare. Hand held shot from D5100 Aperture priority Shutter: 1/80 Aperture F8 ISO 800 Manual focus VR off Lens AF-S Nikkor 18-55mm +14 Polaroid magnification adapter Lighting - overhead led aquarium lighting with additional led lighting from the right side of the picture. From what I can tell the first thing I need is to find some way to add lighting in from the left to balance out shadows. Left photo is the original raw and untouched. Right photo is cropped how I would like to have shot it (the wall got in my way) and adjusted in Photoshop CS6 to enhance the fans. [ATTACH=CONFIG]23007._xfImport[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]23008._xfImport[/ATTACH] Thanks again for any input. Photographing my aquarium occupants has become a bit of a fun winter time quest. [/QUOTE]
