Exemplar of red rock crab (Grapsus grapsus), Cerro Brujo, San Cristobal Island, Galapagos Islands, Ecuador.
  • I've played with it, to try to get something closer to File:Grapsus grapsus Galapagos Islands.jpg. Here it is : [1]. It doesn't have the "overdone clarity signature", but not sure it looks so good. My hypothesis is that lighting was harsh (shadow), so you had to add contrast somehow. But I think you needn't go that far. Wonder what other reviewers think about that (if they see me, but I'm not gonna ping everyone ;) ). Anyhow, hope you can sort this out. I don't support now because of this, but really I'm wowed (and again you are very inspired lately).- Benh (talk) 20:38, 26 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thanks for the uploaded version, Benh. To me it looks though a bit too warm, the rocks in the background got yellowish and the crab doesn't convince me, either, but maybe someone else would like to give a comment Poco2 20:45, 27 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
