Ghostfish

This is my first post, I'm a newbie of UW photography after years of UW video. Here are some pics of ghostfish, taken in Bunaken Sulawesi. I find difficult to get a correct exposure with this subject : critiques welcomed, thanks for your time

These are awesome. I particularly like the last one. I think if you burned in the background it would be even better.

Great shots and Welcome to Wetpixel. I think you've done a good job of exposing the fish - but the backgrounds are a little bright. One of the hardest things about macro photography is not lighting up the background if it's just a bunch of rocks. Strobe aiming is key.

You can use photoshop like Loftus says to darken the background and add impact (more impact I should say) to the photos.
