Fun with Actinics

[nsxnr6]

Hi Everyone,

I decided to head over to Aquatic Showroom last night but got there late while they were closing. I was able to get a few actinic shots and wanted to share them with you.

While leaving Aquatic Showroom, I was fortunate enough to run into Lam (LCN on here) and was invited over to his house for more actinic shots

Hope everyone enjoys the pictures!

NIce, that's the good thing with attinics they make your corals look better than they really are.

Thanks again for the all the kind words


Hmmm which collection should i photograph next?

 

[650-IS350]

Nick, was that a PPE on the last pic

650,

I am not quite sure if it is or not. I only saw this coral under actinics so the purple it had was way darker than those associated with PPE. We will have to wait for LCN (Lam) to log on and answer this question.

I think it is. Especially with the Green Slit mouth.

Those are PPE. Here's a full lighting shot.

Nick.. once again such phenomenal shots.

DurTBear - Just crank up the actinics on your tank and your corals will look phenomenal Yeah, actinics are great, but they give you false sense of how "pretty" something really is....I compare it to women's make up

On another note, how far away are you from Milpitas? If you are not too far, I'd be more than happy to stop by and take some shots.



scuba71 - Thanks!!

Unfortunately I'm up here in San Francisco so it's pretty far from Milpitas. But if you're ever up in the area, please let me know!
