The tank was only running on the battery back up for a few hours and since the lights were off, the corals were fooled into smiling for the camera I just could not pass up the chance to grab the camera and snap a couple shots. I would of taken more except the wifey was yelling at me to go cut up the tree that had fallen over in our front yard :lol:

cool shots... have you thought about using a black piece of plexi or something else in the background to help isolate the subject better?

Thanks guys. I took these really quick as I was having to clean up the front yard. Sorry, but no tree shots as I was such in a hurry that I forgot to switch things around on the camera and I even forgot to shoot the tank in RAW :lol: Hmmm....Black plexi; thanks for the idea

Mark, if the lights were out, how were the corals lit?

Leo, I guess I did a better job explaining in my thread, but I took these right after I turned the lights back on after a few hours of the power being off.

What are you shooting with?

I bleive I took these with my old D40x and 105mm. If I remember correctly, I could not locate my D90.

Very nice, I would have liked to see a little more DOF but very nice none the less.
