So here are a few shots of some seals, I really like how the first one came out, but feel the others need a little work. Any comments are always welcome.

    You did well under some very difficult light and shooting conditions. thumb.gif

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    The first and second look fine to me if not just a tad dark. The others have the subjects too far away. That's all.

    I would check your levels. A little push to the right will make these photos have more impact.

    Thanks for the comments. As for being a little far away from the subjects in the last two, I really couldn't get much closer, NSF rules and all, I would have loved to though. I'm hoping to get some free time this weekend to really start playing around with photoshop to do some tweeks to my photos.

    The faraway doesn't bother me so much as cropping the bodies on the edges. Photoshop will be a big help! The second photo is my favorite!
