Very nice. This thread could be a preview of possible frags to come...
here's an actinic shot from last night. {Echinopora in the foreground.}
 
Nice pic Gary. Is that plating thinggy what I think it is? Your mouths are so much closer together than on mine (assuming it's what I think it is)?

Okay, I've fumbled around with my Canon G4 long enough. Can Gary or Steve tell me the secrets behind getting the great perfectly clear macro shots. Since I'm sure this has been asked a dozen times before, so a link will suffice.

I'm sure everyone is dying to see the couple of frags I picked up from Bill W yesterday :-)
 
ReeferMac has the G4, but I think technique is similar for my Canon A70. I set resolution to maximum size for a big pic. I usually choose Macro mode with auto exposure- flash off. Keep lens pressed against aquarium, or at an angle if using flash. You'll still need to edit your pics- not every picture is as clear as you thought it might be. Sometimes taking a picture at a distance {4ft. or so} from the tank on max resolution will capture something unplanned- like a fish diving into the sandbed. You'll have a big pic to play with {crop}. You have to play with your camera! Can't wait to see those frags.
 
I just added some great frags thanks to Guy and mirski57:

A Montipora Digitata and Silver xenia from Guy:

Thanks guys!
 
Okay, I shot a couple of pics of the frags I received from Mirski. I'm not sure you can call them frags if they are attached to whole pieces of live rock :-)

I'm not entirely sure this is going to post. I'm trying to copy others who post them to their gallery and then link them into the post.

Thanks go out to everyone for the picture advice. The key was also to put the camera on manual focus. I think if I also get my tripod out, I'll have an easier time.
 
Well, this is a pic of my nano 10 gallon from about 3 weeks ago. Next tank will be bigger, better and have some higher powered lighting.... Feel so limited with my PCs...

Enjoy.

Hey Downset,
I'm not fragging mine.(too scared)
The guy who gave me the frag last year, made more and is selling them. They are insanely expensive.

doesnt matter i need to be in touch with him :) please pm me details :)
 
Hey, that's a great looking nano!!! How much light do you have over it?

I finally moved from my 30g into my new 75g and here are the pictures to prove it. The tank sits in a newly built wall seperating our dining room and living room. Neither room has any furniture yet (That money was spent on the tank...hehe).
