Nice shot and great first post! I like the filter, but it's just a little bit too strong... for me anyway.

That picture is garbage!


Because I didn't shoot it.

It's a fine shot. I personally would play with the light/dark of the water and the beams as well as bring out the 'girrafes' a bit but it's still a nice shot.
