    Re: Killer Reflection

    I am not sure if I like the blue or not. Shouldn't the whale be black and white?

    I like the square format but I think a little off the top wouldn't hurt (down to the big what should be white splotch or so).
    No, I DON'T need that.

    Re: Killer Reflection

    Whoah ! Attack of the killer BLUE and whale!!! I feel like someone just threw a gallon of blue paint into my face (but I had goggles) cause the whole world went BLUE. It's just too overwhelming, IMO.

    As for the rest of the shot, the angle is fair but there's too little detail to really make much of anything out. More contrast might help - bump it up and see.

    Re: Killer Reflection

    I haven't figured out how to remove the colour cast from the glass I had to shoot through. Any suggestions on how to lose it without losing detail? If I go 5to black and white as is I end up with no white and all grey and black.

    ***EDIT***

    Ok I figured out how to remove a colour cast. How does this edit look now?
