dshnarw January 25, 2010 January 25, 2010 I got so wrapped up with the ctenophores, nettles, and coldwater tanks that I forgot to get new shots of the reef. Anyone got some they can post up? many more here: http://gs158.photobucket.com/groups/t120/N...mview=slideshow I promise there were WAMAS members there too!! I just umm..."forgot" to take their pictures too
dshnarw January 25, 2010 Author January 25, 2010 Thanks! James, you'll have to check out the photobucket slideshow. That's all I managed to get this time. Unfortunately, I missed the good opportunities with the octopus and the baby cuttlefish. The 4th image was taken with the Canon 18-55mm kit lens, the rest were taken with the Sigma 150mm macro.
Valeria January 25, 2010 January 25, 2010 Awsome pictures... please post a link to your photobucket slideshow
davelin315 January 25, 2010 January 25, 2010 Daniel, breathtaking as usual. You, Chris, and the other photo experts on here have really spoiled us! I'm glad to see you got your comb jelly photo at last!
OUsnakebyte January 25, 2010 January 25, 2010 Those are excellent - thanks so much for sharing. Cheers Mike
bcjm January 26, 2010 January 26, 2010 Amazing pictures!!! How do you adjust white balancing on the field under different aquarium lights? Do you shoot raw? I have been trying to shoot my own tank but the results are always terrible. Any help is appreciated.
dshnarw January 27, 2010 Author January 27, 2010 Thanks again everyone! I'm glad to see you got your comb jelly photo at last! it's about time! only needed a few hundred shots to get some I liked. How do you adjust white balancing on the field under different aquarium lights?Do you shoot raw? Generally, you should be able to get away with auto white balance if you're shooting in RAW. Just adjust it later on in processing. I use Lightroom to do a batch adjustment of the RAW photos from each tank. White balance issues are also helped by slightly underexposing photos - I usually shoot between around -1/2 to -2/3 EV for aquariums.
Origami January 27, 2010 January 27, 2010 Very nice, Daniel! I was there to see the real thing, but your photos really capture a lot of beauty that the eye overlooks and that memory fails to capture. Thank you!
