I think I will take the one on the left.(LOL) Good work to get the lobsters the main point of view with the amount of light on them. I would consider to remove the stick that looks like it is getting him in the neck. Were they good?

Beautiful scene and a good topic for the contest - you got a wonderful picture with the ocean as background - I would have cleared it up a little bit as the face of this guy is too dark in the shadow due to the angle you choose and as he has already a black skin his nice face disappears in the dark shadow - - try it out to clear it a little as it is really a nice picture

Wow...what an interesting barbeque. So nice to see the difference between cultures. I like the framing here with the trees and the colors bold. The face is quite in shadow, might try dodging that just a bit. Otherwise excellent shot.

I am impressed with the size of the lobsters. Great colour, details, lighting and focus. Background also looks great. I would have been happy if the face of the person could be enhanced with a flash or something.

Comment from delephoto


Wow! That is some seriously large lobster. I would be even tempted to crop the photo to focus on the lobster. A little bit of filler flash or even use of a diffuser/reflector would bring back some of the detail lost to the shadow. This could also be adjusted in post. I do like the sharp focus and vibrant color.
