My new Snowcasso

Those are some amazing pictures. I have a D-90 but might as well have a Polaroid since I have no idea what I'm doing with it. Do you have any tips for a beginner photographer? Are you taking those through the glass or are you using a photo box? How are you lighting the photos and are you using any filters?

Thanks,

I have a couple hot-to guides on my photo site you can check out.

they should help greatly.

Those were all taken through the glass, using a remote SB-800 flash.

That allows me to use the flash at an angle to the glass and avoid having the flash leave a huge white block in the middle of the pictures =)

Im working on a Fish Photography How-To now....should be posted this weekend.

Nice fish and pics. I love the carpet. It would be cool if someday you get a spawn.

do they ever get cut up by the elegance and does it seem to affect it?

surprisingly no, though it does seem to have lessened the stickiness of the tentacles, so im always sure to spot feed them...
