    Love this!! — such a smart way to practice on land, and it really paid off. The glow along the spines and that clean separation from the background are spot on. You can see the control you were aiming for. Also really like how you kept some foreground detail without killing the mood — not easy to balance.

    Quick question — what are those grey traces in the top right behind the pot? They almost look like light spill or haze… curious if that was intentional or something you noticed after?

    Would be great to see you take this underwater next
