handheld

hi raymond, cool jellyfish. for this one, i would have opened up wide open to be able to increase my shutterspeed in the low light situation. maybe even bumped up the ISO to 640 or 800. this looks underexposed and lacks a lot of detail. compositionally i would make sure not to cut off the tentacles too!! you want to include the entire jellyfish. aquariums are really cool, but somewhat difficult to photograph because of the low light.

Hi Raymond Way Cool image !!! Difficult conditions Would have gone for shutter speed Agree with Harold !!!

One rule that seems to work was suggested by Chas !!!! I'm a firm believer !! Sharp looks better than noise!!!!! I like the composition very much Just a bit more light would have made a difference !!!! I like the composition Just a bit more light would have made a difference !!!
