Kristian, I agree that it should be cropped a little tighter, or for even a more dramatic feel of isolation compose the subject to the extreme right. I really like the vastness of the environment in the background.

Well done!

Kristian...this is a beautiful image. I don't understand what in the world Alan is talking about, obviously he is unfamiliar with the underwater environment. My only critique is perhaps it is a little dark, that and I wish you approached it more from the front of the nudibranch. It seems to be moving away from you, which is always considered a no-no in most wildlife situations.

Overall, I love it.

Focus on the eyes, not the part that is closest to you, in this case his mouth. Most marinelife is very unusual, so it is critical to make contact with the subject through the most common feature of the animal...the eyes.

Otherwise, very nice

I would have to agree with you. I was shooting macro and not anticipating the arrival of this whitetip. The strobe barely reached the shark and definately lost some color saturatiion during the exposure. I'm not efficient enough with Photoshop to have corrected it, I only just started using Elements 3. Thanks for your comments.
