    Default underwater

    I tried to recreate the atmosphere of turbid (? is it correct?) waters after the immersion of such a big animal, with low contrast and low depth of field. comments are welcome. Lupen

    You captured the underwater look and feel perfectly. These animals look like they are dancing underwater when they walk.

    I always like underwater scenes. Must be something about the way the light plays with the water. Nice job, lupen.

    Back to your unique style Lupen.
    This has a special magic about it.
    Like Gray I love these kind of subjects.

    Hey Gray, maybe you could do a sunken plane?

    Excellent. The fellow looks like he/she is really suspended in the water. The coloring is bang on too.
