Shot a lot, but select this one fish come straight at the camera.
setup: Nikon 500mm lens on tripod, remote trigger, f/5.6, 1/250, no flash, dark surroundings, only fish tank light,
Post: topaz photo AI, since iso is at 12800, some ps to remove dust spots on tank, and darken the background to just show the fish itself.

This is a fun shot! You captured the fish looking straight at the camera with the eyes in perfect focus. The left side seems slightly overexposed and can easily be fixed in Lightroom by lowering the highlights slider. I might even try straightening the fish in Photoshop with Content-Aware crop so as not to cut off the top fin. But that's just a personal preference. Well done!   Posted: 03/05/2025 06:40:52
I agree with David's comments. Such a fun photo and I like that he is coming right at us. I definitely think it is worth working on just a bit more. I would suggest cleaning up the white spots in the dark water.   Posted: 03/06/2025 10:58:44
It is definitely good to try something different on a cold day and it is a good try but I agree with Cindy that it needs tidying up a bit.   Posted: 03/25/2025 15:52:32
