Cup Corals

Taken at night off the Kona Aggressor.

Taken at night?! No way, but I'll just take your word for it. Beautiful colors. I guess whatever light you had worked really well. Consider cropping off the black line at the top of the frame and a little at the bottom (to the lowest point of the smaller whole clump of coral). Good work!

I will definitely re-crop. The light was a pair of Sea and Sea strobes.

Not a flash right? Spot lit? Amazing focus under water with digital. Did you bag it? I'm impressed

yes

Nice composition and colors, but, (having "been there, done that") I think you've tweaked the contrast and saturation a bit too hard. What's the out-of-the-camera image look like?

Michael:

I can't find the original file, its on a CD somewhere but here is one taken on the same dive. You are right that the saturation has been boosted a little but the original, straight from the camera is almost the same colors.
