good job getting the blood look in the water, but the blood coming of the stingray doesnt look real

Thanx for the feedback, anacsit. I was originally going for a dried-blood look, tho I think now fresher (more saturation) is more poignant. I'm pretty atuned to color, but it's beastly hard sometimes (for me anyway) to get color shades just right, especially after the pics are downsized for the web. I'm still not sure that blood shade is satisfactory (considering the ambient light, I think maybe it works). Would like to hear other opinions. Always trying to learn.

Good work, I give you a credit for that

The sea looks like blood, which makes a stronger impact.
