Wow, now I need another hobby to make the reefing hobby more amazing. I truly loved the first photo of the starfish with the macro lens. Priceless, really captivated my vision and imagination. I hope your aspirations to do well in photography become a rewarding endeavor for your future and passionate eye in photography. Come to my house and bring your camera

Wrasses, most photogenic fish in my opinion, amazing personalities and colors that are outta this world!

Thank you, much appreciated! I recently just added a lineatus wrasse to my reef tank and I am looking forward to getting a picture of it and posting. Wrasses can be very beautiful.

I thought I’d mix things up and do a coral photo. This is one of my favorite corals I have.

Highly recommend you click on the Goni picture to see the details.

Here is another fish pic.

Great photos!
I love that goni picture.
Somehow, my "iPhone through clip-on filter" method doesn't quite work out this well. Oooops...

Really see the glitter and enhanced colors when you click on the photo and enlarge it some. Wow! Looks amazing!

Hehe thanks! That was one of the reasons I felt I had to upgrade. Phones are great and convenient, but I wasn’t getting the clarity I wanted (and it wasn’t because of skill.)

Appreciate the comment! Thanks for checking my photo out. Definitely one of my favorite corals. I could’ve cropped in further on this picture, but I like the fun surprise when you zoom in like you did.

Here is a new pic of my magnificent fox face. I have a more artsy one in the works, but I haven't fully edited it yet. Happy 4th of July!

Sorry all, I uploaded a duplicate on accident...this was the artsy one I meant to upload!

Great shots!
I used to have a Kodak simple pretty cheap camera back in the day it took very good pics and macros were out of this world. I wish Photobucket hadnt gone terrorist/extortionist, I lost a lot of good pics when my computer crashed and during that time frame PB changed their agreements claiming all pics on the database were their property and you needed to pay to use their stuff (I dont negotiate with terrorists). "Upgraded" cameras to a fujifilm lol and it was terrible, took forever to get a decent shot like 1-20 photos would be useable. That camera was 10x cost more than the kodak which really was a point and shoot camera. I know these cameras dont come close in the camera world to what you are using.

Thanks! I miss having the pics I had on photonics also, my profile pic was a one of a kind blasto I used to have.
