Remarks"Squid In High Key" - I spent about 1 1/2 hours with some playful squid on a shallow shore dive, photographing them against the sky. The curious squid continuously swam in and out from my macro lens port. For this shot, I swam directly under the squid and pointed my camera straight up, backlighting the squid against the sun. In camera, I purposely overexposed the squid in front the sun in order to blow out the sky and leave just the squid as the subject.
