[Dave3112]

Yeah I have been into the chalices for a while now. LOL. How is the Miami Hurricaine you got from me doing?

 

[jason.tammy]

It has grown some.The storms took out alot equip. and it did not like the change as alot of the other corals did not.It took a couple of weeks to get all new stuff in and reinstalled.

 

[Tomoko Schum]

I got to see his beautiful tank today :beauty: It is so much more beautiful than all his pictures.

Thank you Tomoko! I believe you helped to add to the beauty with those corals!

WELL, That's what sh................OK, no jokes today. I know that this thread is a lot of pages but I guess I just like to take a lot of pictures! :bigsmile: Matter of fact when my tank clears up from the water change I just did I'm going to take pictures of the sticks!!!! :tongue:

 

[H@rry]

Hey, I say, if you got it, flaunt it! Keep diggin' Dave! :dribble:

 

[Dave3112]

OK here they are as promised! I really hate how "washed out" the pictures look when taken through the glass! I am investing in a Avast Marine Porthole!

Ponape Birdsnest from H@rry!

Green Pocillipora? Birdsnest?

Now one of my favorite Acros H@rrys Grape Sherbet. This picture does it no justice at all!

Oculus Aquatics Passion Fruit Tenuis This picture doesn't show how bright blue the tips are....

ORA Pearl Berry

Tyree Pink Lemonade

Pink/Purple Pocillipora

ORA Plum Crazy. I think I have it too low in the tank the colors are just not right

[Dave3112]

Just a plain old green slimer............nothing to see here...move along......LOL

That's Grape Sherbet. Lookin good!

 

[Dave3112]

HAHA! Sorry I was thinking it should be more green than the picture shows and just typed it. OOPS. A little cerebral flatulence.

 

[Dave3112]

Ok these shots look better. The colors are more true to life.

Oculus Blue Agave and Posideons Fury

ORA Tri Color

Oculus Passion Fruit Tenius

ORA Purple Plasma

Another one of H@rrys acros. I forgot what the name is.....

The Icefire looks way better this way......

Top down of one of the unknowns

I almost lost this acro right after I got it. It is finally coming back and I am really liking it. It is a tri color stag from Oculus Aquatics

 

[jason.tammy]

I love the camera shots.What type of camera and lens do you use?Things are looking great Dave

 

[jason.tammy]

Please dont take that out of context.I think the tank looks great.
Jason

 

[Dave3112]

Nothing to take out of context. It is a Canon Rebel XTI with the stock 28-55mm lens. I used Photoshop Elements 7 to adjust the white balance then converted to RAW file to Jpeg and that's all. Lol

 

[H@rry]

The ability to shoot in RAW and do the white balance yourself really makes a lot of difference (as we can see!).

it absolutely does. I can tell it to convert it to 20,000 kelvin and it takes most of the blues out! I will post some un-processed ones when I get home to show the difference!

 

[Tomoko Schum]

I am pretty sure that this coral is green Pocillopora:
