Whaleshark in Oslob. The feeding is controversial the experience being in the water with the giants is however unique.

message this message is importantDear Yildirim,
as you know my classic foreword already, I now directly start my review of your recent photo.

Photo Critique

First impression
light would help.....

Technical ( score from 1-6, best is 6 )
Exposure : 3, Colours: 2, Sparpness: 3, DOF ( depht of field ) : 3, Contrast : 3


Suggestions :
It needs light ( like a strobe ) to get back the original & beautifull colours.


Composition
There is ( unfortunetly ) no compsoition existing.


Suggestions :
Shooting anemones can work in different ways : As a close up abstract ( working with colours & shapes ) , in combination with a secondary subject ( like the good ol' clownfish ) or as CFWA shot with a proper blue water background. But one of them you need to decide ! Take always your time, try different angles & settings and always think about how to feature your "model" best in a photo ;-)

message  Subject
Anemones are very pretty animals...with a "nemo" or without.



Suggestions :
Always difficult to capture our own impression while diving on "just" a photo. I know how nice it is to see a nemone like this, but to get a good ( and contest winning ) photo of it is a different story ;-)

I highly recommend that you take your time and view as many underwater photographs as you can, especially winning photographs - you could gain a lot of knowledge and inspiration smile


Epilogue
Keep on going...it all comes by time & experience !!

All the best,

Rico
