Any Idea?
How is he lighting these?
I stumbled across this website this morning of Betta fish photography. Incredible. How do you think he's lighting these? My first thoughts are a clean bowl, the fish, a black background some distance from the bowl, and a strobe VERY close to the subject. I'm thinking an off camera speedlite and gobo'ing the flash. Macro lens too? |

I'm inclined to think some PS work was done based on this

I would say the biggest issue would be the reflection off the glass regardless on how it was lite and I'm not sure (I never tried it like that before) if a CPL would take that much glare out of it. I also agree with your other post about PP...maybe they just exposed perfectly for the fish and then blacked the background in PS later, regardless that Photog has some skill |
