Fire up your cameras for the April POTM competition. This month's subject is: Full-tank shots

Enter your images in this thread. Here are the rules:
--Your image must be that of an entire tank, either the front face or an end view
--The photo must be your photo, shot by you.
--One entry per person
--The longest image dimension cannot exceed 800 pixels. Images exceeding 800 pixels will be ignored. You will not be warned.
--If you put a "frame" around your image (not recommended), your overall image and frame may not exceed 800 pixels.
--Images will be judged by a panel of three photographers, i.e., the winner will NOT be determined by a popular vote. The panel's decision is final
--Among the factors that will be considered are focus, white balance, composition, creativity, and overall image quality.
--Submission deadline is midnight Central time, April 25.
 
Please read the entry rules and comply with the image size requirement. Several March entrants were disqualified because their images were too big.

This should be awesome!
 
Can't wait to see some entries!!
 
I will start with a FTS of my 125 gallon reef

Remember: Gary does not like "blue" tanks. My bet would be get the best looking picture of your tank under lighting that is closer to natural than a hippies bedroom. Just my thoughts...carry on.

Here's mine:



The original is 800 on the long side, have to check and see what the gallery considers "large". This image was taken from the left to right of my old 90. I did crop a bit off the bottom.

I guess I'll post a pic of my tank for the first time. Still needs a lot of work.

Looks like larger tanks may have a little disadvantage when it comes down to being able to see details. My tank measures 60x36x30T.
