About the Image(s)
This image was taken in Kachemak Bay south of Homer, Alaska. The mom and her two cubs stayed very close together and kept their distance from our boat. I loved how the two cubs posed in front of mom and they all looked at us. Taken with my Sony 7RM5 with a Tamron 50-400mm lens (I switched the camera to APS-C mode to get the crop effect so focal length was about 600mm). ISO 400, at 1/2000 sec, and f/6.3 hand held. The image is cropped to a square format, basic editing with masking of the otters and a dynamic contrast mask applied. I have processed this image in color and black and white. I have had various comments from friends in my camera club, good and not so good. I really like this image and would like your comments as to what improvements I could make and which version you like.
