No havent looked. First time it gets wet. Macro lens next.

But yea want to get the rubber caps. Any advise? I dont know of any Ace around here, but do have HD and Lowes.

Yes. Take one of the nylon screws to the hardware section. They prob have then in the specialty fastener area. A auto parts store would have rubber vaccum line caps. They would work too.

As far as tips go. Use edge of tank to help brace yourself. Also using ISO of about 400 or higher might help if you can't brace it against tank.

Ed. How does this look compared to yours. If you shoot in raw not jpeg the ability to enhance the photo is easier.

I think if you white balanced the pics. Your colors will also be better. Try using Lightroom or even a simple program like Picasa.

I created Eddie the monster. Few lessons from me and he will be making everyone drool.

 

[rovster]

I need a few lessons too! Sign me up for the Lightroom class!

I agree. I use photoshop. The pic needs to be in raw not JPEG for me to adjust white balance. For me. That's typically all I adjust.

Marke- i looks like you adjusted saturation in this, i try not to do that in an effort to keep it real.

Next time ill shoot in RAW, but man it takes up tons of space.

Cannon has a program that comes with the camera similar to Lightroom, but much easier to use.

Looks great Eddie. If close down that lens a few stops. Eric doesn't listen to me, but maybe you will.
