Hard to shoot little guy I do not know why

[big]

I have been taking pictures of this stupid (not really) fish for close to a year now. This is the first half decent one I have ever got of him!

[bronco300]

love the purple firefish, it was always difficult to get pics for me too, maybe cause of the vibrant color variants, beats me

That is a great picture. I don't know how you got the color on it so well.

Thanks all! Believe it or not , that is my old Olympus C4000 4 meg camera. I do not use Photo shop. All I do is use "Micro-craps Picture it Premium" to crop balance and adjust brightness on the shots........ I am truly a amateur the last good camera I ever use years ago was my film Nikon F........ I use the PHD setting (push here dummy) set for Macro focus.......

A year in trying...........slacker!!!

Can't say you gave up too quickly. The practice as paid off, that is a beautiful picture. Nice colors. He even looks like he is smiling at you, or a sheepish grin.

That's great. I really have to go there. This spring when the weather warms up I will have to have to make a road trip. I'm sure my vette will need a road trip by then!!

OK I want to see the Vette! Here is my old 66-427 rag with factor sides, with the Boss behind the wheel at our old place , a few moons back. Wish I still had it!!
