An elegant shot @jocudmore, I like that you’ve uses a fill light as fish eyes that are purely backlit can look a little ‘dead’ otherwise.

I haven’t shot that particular seahorse species myself, but the whole image seems to have a yellow cast. Wondering if you’d get more colour contrast, by pulling the temperature towards the blues.
