Sweet! What camera/lens?

 

[robert s b.]

7D w/ 100mm and macro extension

 

[jthao]

nice.... just a suggestion: increase your fstop... idk what you're using, try around f8. pics are blurry because of the low fstop which makes your dof so small that it barely covered a couple of mm. also the pics are a tad soft. the fp is pretty sharp, but because your fp is not centered, looks like the pic overall is blurred/soft. even with a low fstop, if your fp is centered around the center of the coral, it'll still be pretty good. looks like your pics would definitely benefit form a bigger fstop (meaning smaller opening on lens) and if you're not already doing it; put it on a tripod to stabilize it more, stop all flows in the tank and take the photo straight on, not at an angle.
otherwise, nice!!

 

[robert s b.]

Thanks for the tip, I was at F8. Tough with a macro extender rings, pretty much lose control. Will use a tripod next time.

Nice pictures! I have the 7D with a Sigma 105 Macro... Tripod and WiFi app on iphone for the shutter and preview is nice... Hope to see more pics soon!

Super cool man! Love the lava lamp, Blow bops and AOG

 

[Tanks_Big_Time]

Looking good Rob! I'm glad you still have the lava lamp. I bet that thing is starting to drop a bunch of babies for you. The young adults are super colorful.

Hope to cross paths with you again some time soon. Hope all is well!

Of course, I was able to when I had my bowfront. You need to be close to the glass, so you wont get distortion and not take the picture in an angle.
