Just wanted to share some pictures from the "Into the Blue" article. Few of them didn't make it there so I'm showing them here. LMK if you like them.

Thanks guys for your comments. To answer all questions:
1. The camera is Nikon D7000+ 90mm Tamron lens attached to it. All pictures were taken under purely royal blue lights with modified flash and gels on the lens, that's why you see those crazy colors. It's my method for taking pics under blue light:)
2. Yes, all pics were taken in my tank and all corals are mine. I'm sorry Matt, but I'm not fragging any of my lps as I want them to grow into colonies and they are painfully slow to grow in a sps-dominated tank.

Hmmm, nice... Haven't thought about that yet.. My trick was to just usually dont take picture with Royal blue lights only, haha..

But i have to try using a flash with gel (what color do you use to compensate the blue). it does make the camera a little bulky..

Those pictures are AWFUL!!! You should never pick up that camera again. LOL
You should give the camera to me and I'll make the pictures look like I took them with a kodak disc.
On a serious note. You are freakishly gifted man. Unreal!
