Cichlabxr Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 Hi Lepperfish, Extremely nice photograph. Could you please provide us with some info on how you took it. Interested to know which camera, settings and the distance you took it from. Also how do you get the black surround, finishes everything off really well. Thanks Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lepperfish Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 Hiyas!! Wow I finally win one!! Settings for this photo were : 1/160sec - ISO100 - f/8 - Manual exposure - Pattern metering. Camera is an old canon 20D. There is no black background in this photo? Just some rocks and weeds. Thanks!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lepperfish Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 Whoops! I should have read that a bit better!! Sorry champ! Just in photoshop, make the canvas to whatever size you want. In my case I think I just made it 20 pixels wide every side. Hope that helps mate. Do you have a copy of adobe photoshop? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cichlabxr Posted March 6, 2007 Author Share Posted March 6, 2007 Hi Lepperfish, Thanks. Thought you'd misread my message. I have a copy of Photoshop 6.0. Don't know how to use it but now I am back into my cichlids I'll start to do a few tutorials. I have a Canon IS S2. Takes pretty good pics on Auto but just starting to get the hang of using the manual settings. Regards Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
