For a change of pace from urban scenes and b&w...taken during my photowalk with @ukandie1 at the Shedd Aquarium in Chicago. I thought this fish was really beautiful and wanted to do it justice.
Just gorgeous! Is the lighting like this in the aquarium or is the black background from your processing? So beautiful and elegant? How wonderful that all you locals could visit for free on that day! Fav!
@pamknowler This was the background but I used saturation and contrast to bring up the color a bit, and luminescence to make it somewhat richer. The hardest part was getting rid of lights that were reflected in the glass in the front, and the ISO was high so there was a fair amount of noise I had to deal with. I was happy at the result, but it was a pain to clean up as I didn't want to change the colors of the fish.
