  • Question: what are the stripes in the water above its back? Clegs (talk) 08:40, 10 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
There are strange lines in the water that kind of follow the contours of the shrimp's back. Any idea what may cause something like that? I'm wondering if it's a similar effect as we can see on his front left foot which is obviously moving pretty fast and creates a similar effect. Also, below this yellow blurry foot bit, there's a strange artefact at the bottom of the frame. Aaadddaaammm (talk) 13:03, 10 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I don't know what it is. Tomer T (talk) 14:47, 11 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment looks badly photoshopped. Is the image a montage? There's an error at the bottom of the image, limbs and other parts look cut off, and the stripes following the contours of the body do seem a bit odd. If it wasn't manipulated as such then the depth of field must be completely awkward. ZooFari (talk) 05:56, 12 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • I think you may be looking at DOF effects - blurry foreground things concealing focal objects that are in motion. So you get two different blur effects right out of the box. As for the contour lines, the aquarium glass could cause some refraction, or possibly reflection off the lens. Papa Lima Whiskey 2 (talk) 12:40, 13 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
