Thanks guys! I wasn't sure if it would be bright enough to get decent shots, but the shutter speed was actually pretty quick. :)

Well, I've been getting a lot of great feedback for my photos lately, thanks guys! So I'll start posting random reef shots in this thread and hope you all enjoy them as much as I enjoy taking them. :)
All shots are taken with a Canon T2i. The close-ups/macros with a Canon 100mm macro and the wider angle shots are usually taken with a Sigma 10-20mm.

These first ones are from a shoot I did for a LFS, Reef Coral in Baton Rouge, LA. Still haven't gone through all of the pics I took there, so I might have a few more to post later!

Took some pics yesterday and today using the 430EX, a diffuser, and the old DIY ringflash to see what kind of macros I could get. The in-camera colors were more yellow from the flash, so I pulled them more towards blue in RAW processing to look normal.
And I see Flickr has gone and updated their look again.... ah, found the IMG code.

I'm able to entice the pom pom crab from his crevice with food for a few shots:

His nems are looking quite nice:

And this evening there was a rare (for me) full body appearance of a brittle star:
