Nidding's macro thread

[nidding]

Hello.
While my tank isn't much to talk about just yet, being only 6 months old and still suffering from outbreaks of all sorts of nasty algae, I have found that one of the beauties of macro photography combined with reef keeping, is that it allows a struggling newbie like me to focus on what's worth a look in our tank, and showcase just this. Therefore I present to you, a few of my macro images. While I hope to improve the overall look of my tank, I also hope to be able to keep up my macro work, and keep the thread going.
But for now, here's a few photos

Tripneustes gratilla
I would recommend taking a closer look at this to see some of the very interesting appendages on this urchin

Sorry. I posted the wrong links,and the images are turning out way too big.
As I can't edit the post any more, here are the same photos again in a more viewable size

Also, here are a few older photos. Some of them are not true macro, but are still close ups none the less

those last zoas look crazy

Especially in good flow where they get long tentacles they indeed look pretty awesome in the tank I'm pretty sure I got them as a freebie once.
