Well, it is not really a useful comment for that I appologise.... but that seems a great deal of DOF. If it isn't and there is a trick to this I don't understand PM me.

good use of depth of field here... everything is in focus :) the 'creative' use of the pencil in this photo seems a little bit weak to me though... - jmsetzler

Nice idea and view. The hand bothers me, but I don't know how you could have done it better really.

This is a really cool picture, but how do we tell if its new? Is he new in your aquarium, a new baby ? Maybe a different title would help.

Not knowing what a new "sea foal" looks like, I'm going to have to take your word on this. You did a fine job of getting him centered into the photo. The lighting is good, however the background is kind of bland. I understand that you couldn't just say "hey little sea foal, could you please come over here to this more pleasing background and hang out awhile?" So I wont let it bother me too much. However, I do have one question. What the heck is all that stuff floating around? It's kind of icky looking. Thanks for the opportunity to view the sea foal. He's a cutie. Good luck with the challenge.

Could be beautiful. Colors are right. DOF is right. Exposure seems right. ocus just a tad soft. Unfortunate glass scratches distract, however.

I really like this photo! I know you couldn't control the scratches (or whatever) in the glass, but it is sooo distracting. The little buddy is about as clear as I have ever seen. There are a number of light reflections, as well. A couple could have been cropped out as they were near the edges, but you would still have several that couldn't be cut. (no down grade at all, this is more than hard to do.) 9 Swash
