Info Zebra sea bream (Diplodus cervinus), Teno-Rasca marine strip, Tenerife, Spain. The zebra seabream has a high compressed laterally body with a pointed snout and thick lips. It's found in eastern Atlantic Ocean from Gulf of Biscay to South Africa and also in Mediterranean Sea. According to the fishing pressure which undergoes on the zebra seabream living area, it has a solitary or gregarious behaviour. The zebra seabream is carnivorous and its diet consist mainly in benthic food like sea urchins, worms and bivalve molluscs. Diplodus cervinus has many threats to its population. One of the threats is being overfished. The abundance has been reduced by 85% of the unexploited equilibrium level. Note: it would be the first FP of this species. c/u/n by Poco a poco (talk) 15:58, 9 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support I know it was underwater, and it's generally a good pic. But you should see if you can do more about that noisy line on the back fin ... Daniel Case (talk) 01:57, 12 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Daniel Case: you meant the caudal/tail fin, right? I applied some denoising in that area Poco a poco (talk) 10:07, 12 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Neutral Although it's under water, I'm not sure the focus is optimum here -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:04, 13 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Well, there are 2 option in terms of focus, I either got the fish or the background, and if it had been the latter it wouldn't be a candidate. Regarding where the focus point is, I just installed this Lightroom plugin (no clue why Adobe is not providing this feature) to figure it out and it is quite in the middle of the fish, which is of couse a matter of luck underwater as I cannot prepare and shot as I can do over the surface.

- AFAICT it is only showing you the focus point you set, it's not telling you if the focus was proper, which is was Basile is skeptical about. - Benh (talk) 11:45, 13 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

To be honest I'm not sure what we are discussing here. The focus is on the fish, the fish is flat and in a parallel plane to the chip on the camera, so the question about wheter the focus was on a proper spot is a secondary issue for this kind of subject. I'd understand this discussion with a subject with one end far from the camera and the other one much closer. Poco a poco (talk) 22:12, 13 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Seems blurry. Motion blur at 1/250s? The tail is totally blurred and the fish seems to leave. Concerning the focus point, it also depends on the speed of the animal. Leaving fast = distance increased from the focus tracking to the shot recorded -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:10, 14 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
