    HI Elena, that’s a challenging subject for a fisheye and 8 inch dome, but I like your approach to experimentation and taking on the challenge of photographing it! It’s hard to resist these, even when we’re told it’s best practice to devote your dive to a specific mode of photography.
    I really like the colour palette and how the strobe has lit the right edge of the nudi. I think the contrast, and the effect of the side lighting, would be stronger if the shadows were darker and there was less empty space on the left of the nudi 😀
