Steve,

These are nice. Whereabouts have you been diving for these? I was looking at my housing and strobe tonight thinking it is time I got back in the water. Not sure if I can remember how to use my C5050 though :)

Ant.

Hi Ant - These were taken under the Mornington pier. I also posted some pictures of seahorses a few days ago. PS: Having a look at these on my work monitor they all seem quite dark. :?

Steve,

I was going to say these all look dark, but I guess you also see that now. They also lack some contrast.

The first one might look better if you rotate it counter clockwise.

I feel you have lost too much detail in the second. It is going to be difficult to get the shadow detail back without blowing the highlights.

The third would be much better if it was brighter and had a bit more contrast to highlight the tube feet. I think a square crop would work better.

Same here, they looked much brighter on my home monitor (time to calibrate it I think).

If you want to find some good nudi's give Blairgowrie Marina a try.
