I thought it would be cool to have a thread of pictures worthy enough to be the background on your computer. Post pictures that you shot of your tank, an aquarium, or ocean... Micro pics would be cool as well. Let me know what you guys think.
Since my tank just finished cycling I have no pictures to offer up.... sorry!

what is that last picture? Is it a lion eating a bangai? Poor little fish!

Is that lion eating the cardinal? :scared:

hot883,
What kind of cardinal is that in the second picture from the bottom?
It looks like a pajama but with better colors.

05 - that is the best pictures i have ever seen of a white anenome crab, and is one of the best pictures i have ever seen, period! i want your camera! did you do anything in PS to clean it up? where you on macro mode, or far away and zoomed in?

 

[05xrunner]

no..I am a photographer as well.
I shot it in ISO 640 also. it shows what a nice DSLR can do with noise and image quality that and good glass.
I basically just ran unsharp mask on it and set the saturation to real life. since I keep all those settings in my camera to 0 so i have total control of the image. nothing special was done to it. Wasnt macro mode..just at 75mm with my Tamron 28-75 f2.8 lens and Canon 30D...80% of the picture is because of the user..20% is on actual gear.
