everythign was on except the moonlights

I am using my HD camcorder as it takes better pictures then my camera - go figure :)

I set the white ballace to outside and set the exposure to manual and turned it down just a bit
 
Wow - gorgeous! It looks like you live near me and you should invite me over to pick up some frags :)

thanks Cozmo - Im just north of you and I do need to frag a couple corals but probably wont get to it for a couple weeks. I post over on DFWMAS so keep an eye over there also


Beautiful!! That's no ordinary camera ... what are you using?

thanks
I am very pleased with the HD camcoder. It is far superior to my other camera
I wasn't happy with the full light pictures until I took these. The difference was I set the exposure to manual and turned it down a couple notches. I also set the white ballance to outdoors

For the actinic shots (those after the chromis above) I left the exposure on auto but had to set the white ballance manually. I found that using a white towel set on the aquarium ledge works best to set the white ballance. I tried settin it on the sand bed but things come out too purple. Using the white towel takes out some of the purple but not all, it's mostly the blues that I can't seem to get right.
