Do not think of an LP as a giant tag.

Treat it differently.

learn about composition, take a look at a color wheel and get a feel for colors.

those are the two most important elements to a LP imo, without good composition it will just look like a jumbled mess of things.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but this is what I see. You're not looking UP through the water. You're looking horizontally across the bottom/middle/deep part of the ocean. He's saying there's a rock like structure jutting out of the sand and that's the dark spot which would make sense and the way the fish are behaving and the way they are facing also helps with this idea. Not only that, but even if you where looking up it would still have dark spots like that because of waves/changes in depth.  :unsure:


Ohhh, ty. I thought we were looking up from under the water and those were the bottom of boats. :Z

I really like it though, much more now that I understand what I'm looking at and what you were going for. Idk though, fish seem a bit weird, and their trails behind them a bit bright, but could just be me. :unsure:

:LOVE:

Really like this version more, the tiny fish things weren't doing it for me. I love the detail on that thing and how I still have no idea what it is. xD Not how sure I feel about the typo.

Only thing would be that it fades away really fast at the back, faster than the light does. :unsure:


Definitely don't stop with this one. :LOL:

looks good except there are multiple light sources

which would be okay imo, but they start out lightly then get very dark in the middle for no apparent reason


there's one light source, just something in front of it.

good piece mate.
