Hmmm... I love seeing the whole work in "Mermaid Sculpture".
The lighting in this shot is much more pleasing, especially the color temperature. What would happen if you used the same color temp in "Mermaid Sculpture" (I hope you're shooting RAW!)? That, and pulling back the highlights on the clouds, would make "Mermaid Sculpture" gorgeous, I think. Cheers, Rick On Feb 5, 2016, at 5:11 PM, Daniel J.
