Fishy

So i went a little further with this one; I had a (DIY) mini tank for the setup. Its very narrow (about 10 cm wide), and I had a flashgun pointing diagonally up from the left bottom corner, and with the help of some aluminium foil on the right. The background was a piece of white paper, was intended to produce overexposed background (by tilting it to reflect sunlight), but miscalculated the aperture value and probably the cloud, and thus this image. Exaggerated the darkness of the back, and added alot of vignetting effect.

Its alright, but not there yet. This particular picture was very hard to work with; The water was very dirty, and too many things flying around in the water that I needed to fix on photoshop. Next thing i'll need is a proper backdrop, and a sponge filter..
