Macro coral landscapes? Having fun with my camera.

Spent a little bit of time with the camera and the tank today bored—not sure it was worth the time put into these shots and enduring, but I did want to share. Happy reefing! :smiling-face-with-sunglasses:

Wow, those look absolutely fantastic!
You mind if i steal some of those for my laptop wallpaper?
What camera did you use and how did you get such clear photos?
Mine always end up blurred or otherwise unrecognizable. But i bet my camera is not as good as yours :)

Thank you. I’m using a canon R8 (I really want a R5mII, but I can’t justify the cost when I don’t make money from photography).—One secret to clear photos is cleaning the glass the night before, also turning off pumps to take pics (this is a big one).

I’d be honored if you used them for your computer wallpaper (fair warning the forum picture compression makes the pic less quality). This makes me feel like I’m improving my craft, so I appreciate that.

:face-with-monocle: Nerd tip: if you zoom in on the first pic (8377) you can see the metallic red zooxanthellae. It’s kinda cool/fun.
