Try to post a photo!

[mike.d.]

Play with the brightness/contrast in Photoshop/PaintshopPro or something similar. Sounds like your flash is set low and is under-exposing your pictures. What type of camera do you have?

[fishfinder]

if you can't manage then let us know so that you'll send the picture by mail to one of us and we'll do it for you and then we will tell you how we've managed to correct it so that next time you can learn and do it on your own.

But If they look great on pc just post them to the forum?!..no printing needed..and we can all see the fish more opinions heehe

Mike most cameras have the facility to adjust the flash intensity, something EV +1.0 would help, it's just a question of finding the setting. PaintshopPro has a one click auto fix button which is pretty handy for post processing.

thanks skip, will give it a try, i have allways had it on auto, just lazy i guess, thanks again, what a helpfull site.

On mine even in auto I can go into the menu and adjust the flash exposure. Not used a pentax lately so not familiar with it.
