Very nice indeed. #1 is amazing!

Wow, looks like you took the first pic thru a microscope. Very sharp

Without EXIF, do you mind detailing your equipment?

 

[RichK]

Thanks folks. Sorry about the EXIF data, for some reason mt site strips it off. EXIF as follows:

#1
Nikon D3, 105mm micro, F10, 1/40 sec, ISO 1250

#2
Nikon D3, 105mm micro, F20, 1/5 sec, ISO 800

#3
Nikon D3, 105mm micro, F20, 1/5 sec, ISO 800

#4
Nikon D3, 105mm micro, F20, 1/6 sec, ISO 800

#5
Nikon D3, 105mm micro, F6.3, 1/160 sec, ISO 1000

I also used a Gitzo tripod, remote release, and RRS BH55 ballhead for support

+1 for #1. Very cool. I would probably have cropped off more of the left edge.

Love the sparkly mouths in #3. Again, I would probably have cropped it to loose some of the bottom but nice shot.

Keep 'em coming!

I agree with the cropping. These were just cropped so I could post them. When I get them printed, they will be cropped much differently. Thanks for the comments.

RichK absolutely stunning pictures. Thanks for sharing. Did you happen to take a full tank shot of your friends reef? Would love to see it if you did.

 

[RichK]

No full tank shots. We got involved in some other things and I forgot to snap a few.

 

[J4Life]

Never hurts to ask. Thanks again for sharing. They are fantastic pictures. Your friend must have one heck of a reef tank.
