This is our winner for our first U/W Photography Competition. We love both the lighting and composition. Congrats to Rifraf for the winning shot!

A note to all future contest participants:
1. Do note the theme of this contest.
2. Do note the size limitations of the picture - 600 pixels on the longest side.

Regards
Eric

[kthan]

No ctritique here since this is not a "how to improve my pics" thread. We like them all, but some we really really like.

1. Lovells' lionfish
2. Sianon's feather star
3. Pufferfishy's shrimp on whip coral
4. Zedd's stingray

Not in order of preference.

As in SATC, we li-ke.

[kthan]

the theme for the next contest is not cast in stone.

Several choices :
1. Clownfish
2. Wide angle
3. Ambient light
4. Shrimps and crabs

Maybe clownfish?

how abt making this as a mthly contest...??
we can use those themes for each mth...

and we can put a mthly contest sticky here.. for ppl to view them in future..

as for prizes.. think kthan cant provide his strobe that often...
maybe a private sexy pose of our judges to replace it??

or juz a 8R print out for the winning shot will do?
