I notice they photoshopped the Seawhips to be red ...

good job though Andi .. it is a nice cover shot with lots
of space for the editor to put his text in and around.

congratulations.

I am interested in that slow shutter speed though.
What effect were you going for ?

Hi Giles, I am glad you like it!

The slow shutter was intended to give me some more
motion into the frame. Actually I slightly panned the
camera while I followed the shark. You can see a small
halo effect on left from the animal in the original photo.

Second effect resulting from this is a blurry water surface in
the background. I felt this looks more arty than the usual
crisp shot, but was not sure if the editors would like it.

Cheers, Andi

PS: I actually was composing for a potential cover

Nice job Andi, great shot.

And I can also tell you I am happy that this thread is not about Ms. Spears and K-Fed - only this part of the Topic Title “Ooops,.. I did it again” appears on the home page - but I guess you knew that wink
