Yeah the colour is superb. Have you played with it much to get that rich vibrance?
Hawaiian Green Sea Turtle
Went diving in Hawaii in October for my first underwater photography experience. Definitely a bit of a learning curve and not as easy as I thought it would be but what a blast seeing and swimming with their Green Sea Turtles.

These are 3 bracketed shots combined into 1 HDR using Nik HDR Efex. No further mucking around as their presets make it look right straight away without going over the top.

The landlord of this pub was complaining that business was bad. I didn’t have the heart to tell him that the ‘Death Raffle’ (locals pick a celeb, pay 10p a week into the kitty, and hope to win the jackpot when their celeb dies) might only attract a certain kind of customer…
Very cool. What did you shoot with? Your DSLR in a housing or something else?Hawaiian Green Sea Turtle

Thanks AFB. Something else...DSLR housings are insanely expensive and often cost more than the camera body itself. I picked-up an Olympus TG-4 point and shoot underwater camera. Good down to 50 ft with no housing and it shoots RAW. Nice little rig for the purpose.

Ah, what a pity! I associate this area so much with you, and you were one of my early sources of inspiration as a landscape photographer. I was hoping to be able to meet you here...alas, perhaps someday! Enjoy the south coast!

Getting less and less satisfied with the pics I take at zoos or aquariums when I focus on the animals/marine life. In the case of aquariums this is even more the case as indoor exhibits need to be shot through often dirty glass with significant reflections, of fast moving subjects in low light that require highish shutter speeds and where accurate focus can be a challenge. I keep experimenting with it as I think it is a fun learning exercise, but I've toned down my expectations.
In general, I'm moving more towards capturing the interactions between the people and the exhibits.
Having said that, I took this on a recent trip.

Nice. I bought a rubber lens hood to try something similar but haven't used it as yet. That and take an old lens cloth with you.Getting less and less satisfied with the pics I take at zoos or aquariums when I focus on the animals/marine life.

Tried to catch the bustle of 6th Ave. A bit of the standard yellow-cab shot. Comments always appreciated.

Very nice. really like the colours and the black background. think it adds nicely to the feel.
I reckon you need to get inspired again. Get yourself to the waterfront in the mist at dawn and grab some long exposures like this guy does...
www.vulturelabs.com i think this is a lovely style of imagery and I am certainly planning to try it out...
You would be great at this...
I'm switching gears to the Chihuly exhibit that was at the Atlanta Botanical Garden over the past summer through October. The best time to see it was a night with the glass sculptures lit up.
