Please tell me what do you think about it!

Ok, thats all. I have two news gallerys in my web page.

Real good macro!

The sharpness is impressive and good colors.

I like most the Nudi & the Grouper

Very nice.

I like the composition and focus.

Thanks.

The Nudi and the anemone are the real size file, the other two (Grouper and Serrano) have been croped.

Another macro in the same dive:

Very nice job Mariano.

Beautifull and sharp pictures I loved them all.

Very nice; the sharpness and color on the grouper are excellent. I like the serrano's composition and exposure. I would have liked to see the nudi with the camera turned vertical.

Hy Dave some friends tell me the same!!!!

It could be a god composition, next time.

Were you running your focus on auto or manual?

Hi MMB,

Did you use additional sharpening in the camera, or in Photoshop? To my eye (my opinion only) some of the shots look oversharpened (the solitary polyp and the zooanthid/anemone looking things).

But they are still beautiful shots.

The soltary polip only croped and auto levels in Photoshop, the another one only auto levels (is the original size)

Cheers

I agree great shot but too sharp
