Two shots to share, feedback welcome

Trying something a little new, I'd love to hear some comments/critiques on these shots, particularly with respect to lighting. Even if it’s just your gut feeling, that’s ok too

They look great to me. What was your technique?

Beautiful lighting. I wish I could get my glass that clean.

I like the 1st one of the blenny. On the 2nd, I think the clown is a bit underexposed; with a little bit of PS, you could change that. - Overall composition is real nice, but what I really like, is the way of the lighting of the anemones.

Was hoping that you wouldn't mind, so I took it into PS and did some adjustments. This is the product:

Usually when people put their name and copyright their picture, they dont want you to play around with it without permission. His pictures look fine. I'm sure thats the way he wants it.

Thanks so much for the comments and kind words guys! The shadow on the clownfish was indeed by-design and intended

I like the first shot. The second one, contrary to the other comment, appears over-exposed to me. The yellow and white on the clown are a tad blown out.

Nice shots nonetheless.
