dory Posted September 19, 2004 Share Posted September 19, 2004 hi all, this is my first time posting pics so sorry if the quality isnt that great. I just got a canon IXUS 500 and i took these shots of my lamprologus ocellatus "blue". It will take some practice to get some good pics but i will keep trying i hope i posted the images right - mum and her bubs - mum and the kids again - mum - leaving home Well i hope they worked, if they did could you guys give me some feedback, tell me where i am going wrong, need to improve etc. Well enjoy! (if they worked) Cheers Dory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lepperfish Posted September 19, 2004 Share Posted September 19, 2004 Yep, pics worked fine Dory, they took a while to load up though.. In the last pic the colour of the photos is really blue, are you using a blue light or did you try and use an effect on the camera? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mianos Posted September 19, 2004 Share Posted September 19, 2004 Dory, that last shot needs colour balancing. It's a good shot: I just loaded it up and adjusted the colour balance and levelled it a bit for you. Nice shot of the little fry on the right. edit: it's worth an entry in the looking at the camera competition. She is looking right at the camera .. 'get yer beady eyes of my fry!'

rick Posted September 19, 2004 Share Posted September 19, 2004 Nice pics there Dory, I would never have guessed it was your first go at it. Keep up the good work. If you are looking for some hints, tips and tutorials on image post-processing check out these couple of sites: http://www.computer-darkroom.com/ http://luminous-landscape.com/ They are both pretty Photoshop focused, but if you are using something else most of the techiques can be applied to any image editing software.

Lepperfish Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 Dory, just change the pic quickly, while no ones looking.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fins Posted September 21, 2004 Share Posted September 21, 2004 Dory, you can change your entry in the photo comp as many times as you like, it gets locked down on the end of the month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
