My first real attempt at coral pics

[shinninja]

Hey everyone. I dusted off my old dslr and took these two. Im a newbie at the coral photography. Not a new comer to macro photography though. I tried to desaturate the colors as much as possible. The light spectrum is so weird with led and corals. Comments welcome. Thanks for looking.
Exif is intact incase anyone wants to see the settings.

I like the second shot. The led's do make the photography difficult at times. I've got 48 cree royal blue's as my supplemental light and it really washes out the blues, purples, and magentas. I would try and set your WB as best you can in your camera, and further adjust in post - what camera are you using and what program in post?

Thanks. I will keep playing with the settings.
