My porcelain crab came out to pose a couple nights ago, so I grabbed my camera and took a few shots. Only the actinics were on, which always makes it interesting to shoot anything that moves. Fortunately, these guys stay pretty still. Anyway, I'm not sure how happy I am with how they turned out, but I thought I'd post them for some critiques. All were shot with my Canon 100mm macro:

Here's the first shot at ISO 800, 1/15 exposure, and F/8

For the second, I opened up the aperture to F/4 so I could bump the exposure up to 1/60. The ISO remains 800.

For the last shot, I used an ISO of 400, 1/40 exposure and F/3.5

The only thing I did with Photoshop is tweak the exposure and brightness, and shift the color temperature a bit cooler.
