My 220

Yeah I have been into the chalices for a while now. LOL. How is the Miami Hurricaine you got from me doing?
 
It has grown some.The storms took out alot equip. and it did not like the change as alot of the other corals did not.It took a couple of weeks to get all new stuff in and reinstalled.
 
Your gona have to start a new thread,this one is getting pretty long.LOL

WELL, That's what sh................OK, no jokes today. I know that this thread is a lot of pages but I guess I just like to take a lot of pictures! :bigsmile: Matter of fact when my tank clears up from the water change I just did I'm going to take pictures of the sticks!!!! :tongue:

HAHA! Sorry I was thinking it should be more green than the picture shows and just typed it. OOPS. A little cerebral flatulence.
 
Ok these shots look better. The colors are more true to life.

I almost lost this acro right after I got it. It is finally coming back and I am really liking it. It is a tri color stag from Oculus Aquatics

I love the camera shots.What type of camera and lens do you use?Things are looking great Dave
 
Nothing to take out of context. It is a Canon Rebel XTI with the stock 28-55mm lens. I used Photoshop Elements 7 to adjust the white balance then converted to RAW file to Jpeg and that's all. Lol
 
The ability to shoot in RAW and do the white balance yourself really makes a lot of difference (as we can see!).

it absolutely does. I can tell it to convert it to 20,000 kelvin and it takes most of the blues out! I will post some un-processed ones when I get home to show the difference!
 
Ok Here are a couple of the examples of UNPROCESSED pictures. Straight from the camera to the laptop to Photobucket.
