The Best I could do

[mkeller]

Getting closer to figuring out my camera. I have a Canon Rebel XT with kit lens. This shot was in manual mode with settings of Tv(Shutter Speed) 1/60Sec. Av(Aperture Value) F5.6 Metering Modes
Evaluative metering Exposure Compensation 0 ISO Speed 100 Lens 18-55mm Focal Length 55.0 mm, edited with CS3. I am open to any suggestions.

Finally figured out what I was doing wrong trying to post image. Figured I would get more responses if you didn't have to click on a link.

That's a nice shot. Got any more?

This one is my FTS, tank is pretty bare at moment, working on that. I don't like this shot all that well but one thing I have figured out is they all don't turn out good, and I speak of good in my own opinion.

thats a good pic of your clown. i can never get mine still enough for a clear one. and i love your sun coral it always adds some nice color to any tank

Can you do any post processing? You need just a touch of sharpening.

MCary, I have Photoshop CS3 but don't know how to use it that well. What I believe I did was unmask sharp pixels at .3 and sharpen around 128%. Seems when I went more it got blurry. Could be that the pic just isn't good enough, but I don't know.

lowincwrx, I think I took somewhere around 48 pics to finally get one decent one of the clown. I just kept taking pic after pic. I was holding the camera in one hand and had my other hand by the glass trying to get the clown to follow my finger so he would be in the right spot with enough light and the right postion to take his pic.

I played around with it in lightroom but it didn't have a whole lot of room to sharpen it, but its still fun to play with
