Thanks Bill. That seems to mirror my own thoughts...any manipulation is fine as long as it is not misrepresented (as could be the case in journalism). But for art, anything goes really.

As requested, here are three shots in sequence of the same fish:

These are all straight out of camera with no edits. This was a "silent" burst on my 5d3 - so about 3fps. Camera was tripod mounted, settings were ISO 400, f6.3 1/2000sec with a focal length of 35mm (using the 16-35 f2.8 mkIII lens). The middle shot is the one I blended with a longer exposure for my final shot.

Comments welcome and encouraged!
