star polyps

checking color. I think I need to adjust the green on my camera.

What color are they supposed to be? I love star polyps, can't wait to add them to my tank. (Cycle

more green in the tips.
same issue here... not the green that I see.

misleading thread topic...this is not a star polyp, but it does have more green in real life. and I am not going to photoshop!

cool

I am using a true SLR. There is no "micro" or macro setting.
It requires a macro lens.
I'm shooting with an E-1 Oly w/14-54mm lens and 1.4x teleconverter. I found a nice macro lens for the 4/3 system priced at just over $800. I'm trying not to have to spend any $$ by playing with color settings and saturation in the camera.
thanx for the input, and nice pic. It kinda stinks that my daughter's $98 kodak gets better tank shots than my $2k digital SLR setup.

ya thats alot of money...my camera is just nikon coolpix s6. the point and shoot type.

 

[larryndana]

yeah, time for a new camera.

 

[socal57che]

Getting better. I removed the teleconverter and it seems to have helped the focal plane, too.
