Photo time of my tiny crew

Playing around with my camera, had a mini photo shoot with the geckos. These photo's are a bit old, makes me think I should have another go when I get my camera back.

That's not stupid at all, I was thinking the same lol. It has to be a crested but I have never seen one so "green" or olive as many like to call it bc green pigment in cresteds is supposedly not acknowledged/possible or something of the sort...i like to say it's green tho cuz that's what it looks like to me.

Re: Photo time of my tiny crew

Looks like you're getting the hang of the camera. I'd suggest running a manual white balance or at least get it closer than what you were using in these photos.
Every photo you have listed here has a very green hue to it.
I did a quick edit for comparison of how the coloration should look....
I added a red photo filter to it ( which means your picture's white balace was too 'cold') and darkened it up a little which means it was slightly over exposed.
If you look at the shadows in your pics you have listed here you can see they are very green instead of shades of gray.
Top is my edit, and bottom is the original posted above


Let me know if you have any questions on how to run a manual white balance etc.

Re: Photo time of my tiny crew

The leachie pic took quite a lot more tweaking, but starting with the correct white balance would help a lot. It was also slightly over exposed as well....

Original on the bottom, edit on the top
