After a long hiatus, I've recently begun to use my cameras again. I was stuck on my 35mm SLR for a while, but I grabbed my DSLR (Nikon D60) tonight and took a few shots rather quickly, just to practice.

Added (1). I'm most certainly into animal cruelty.

If that's a real betta you are apparently into cruelty to animals.

Not keen on it I'n afraid. The bowl is nicely lit, but unless you told me that was a fish I'd be guessing - is out of focus.

Do it

1) Change the aperture priority to manual and then at f/2.5 have a shutterspeed of around 1/640~1/800 instead of 1/1000… Also if possible set ISO at 100

2) If you know photoshop then edit the brightness settings of the picture…

Apart from that composition is perfect…

The backgorund is good, the reflections in the water are good, but the water spots are distracting.i'd clean the bowl a bit more before taking any more shots.

Poor lighting and indistinct. I can see it's a fishbowl but that's about it.

Don't take shots quickly… One considered, well thought out image will for 99.9% of the time beat the occasional snap taken in haste.

Too dark

and that's the only thing… It is too dark to see anything else wrong…

I think the photo would be a lot nicer if you wiped off the dirt from the bowl, it's a little distracting. It's also hard to see what the photo is of because the exposure is way dark. Good shot though.

Compared to the other fish shot you did, that is so fail.

Oh, and you shot it with a digital camera instead this time, adding insult to injury.

You get a D
