not posted on here for a while!

Just to mention - I have a photography site up and running that people might find useful or interesting. There's quite a bit of reef related info on it actually.

Check it out at:

Here's a taster...

Let me know what you think!

Cool pics. Are the photos all of stuff you own, or (given the quantity and variety!) have you also been taking pics of friends' tanks?

 

[clippo]

cheers! - no, I have been taking stock photos for a number of marine outlets near where I live for about a year now, so lots of its is from them. There's some quite unusual stuff actually - ambon scorpion, hellsfire anemone, some wrasses which I haven't been able to ID yet, some of the more unusual angels etc..... some of the shots are from public aquaria which I have been invited to. I only have a couple fo small tanks myself - detailed in the tank shots section. :wink:

8) thank you :wink:

I have a 420EX flash sitting on my desk at the moment - just waiting for to get an IR transmitter then I can start using it for my shots. Should see some improvements hopefully as at present I am constrained by light conditions in the various tanks... keep on checking the site as I'll be updating the information and images regularly.

What camera did you use? Lights?

thanks! 8) - Canon 350. I am still saving up for some flash equipment so all shots above (and on my website) are taken with available tank lighting - some of which was MH, some just fluorescents.

 

[Mihai]

Even nicer then. I thought you have a big rig.

did you usr the canon on the dragnet? ive been looking for a good cam that can take closeups like that but the canon is out of my price range how is the sony?

 

[clippo]

I did use the Canon on the mandarin shot - used the Sony for the boxing crab shot though... the Sony is getting a bit old now but I still love that camera. Maybe have a look at a Fuji S7000 too.

 

[xxdean057xx]

ahhh i was hopeing you used the sony on the manderin. ive been looking for a cam that took pictures like that!!! you made me drool and go looking for cameras. the sony is the only cam in my price range since i have an pentax optio already. anyways if i spent the $ on the camera i wont get great pix like your shooting.

im the guy that has my finger over the lens when taking pics for people, lol
