I used to love your SPS photos...sucks big time that you lost them. 
I totally agree… But as you know it takes a long time for those SPS to get to that stage and I really don't like taking many pictures of small frag's... After losing all of them it's just so hard to get the motivation back to spending TIME and money on them again but I'm slowly getting back into the things... Some of my fellow stick heads of offered to help me get a collection going back up again so that might work... but in the meantime I've been enjoying a less stressful upkeep on my tank and spending the extra time with my son and family... Thanks a lot though bro for always following my thread for all these years I really appreciate the motivation and great comments you always give! Hope you had a Merry Christmas!I need one of them pictures...that says:
"This thread is useless without SPS photos!"
Nah, seriously you really need to get back into the REAL corals: SPS
Thanks Rev! I always love it when you share my pics... I always meet new friends and it gives me people to talk to.:bigsmile:
Haha... Thanks I'm glad you enjoyed it… Be sure to go back a few pages and check out that video I made of the 100mm macro shots by Reefer831...it's also on YouTube... Lots of good eye candy to enjoy on that one
What rebel did you end up going with… Anything past the T2i in the rebel line are all awesome cameras… That's actually what I used to take all these photos with a t2i... That 90 mm should work just fine but I would've preferred something around minds of 100mm or even something a little bit more for macro... I really wish I would've grabbed a 120mm… And would love to own a 200mm... At least you didn't stick with the stock lens and wonder why your pictures weren't turning out so well… That lenses so bad it makes you feel like you're doing something wrong... The next ones I would look into a if I were you is a 24-70... It has a nice range that you could use for many different types of things... Don't be afraid to play with your camera settings you're not going to break it… At worst-case scenario you just put everything back to stock settings... Good luck with everything and have fun… The photography hobby adds so much to this hobby it's amazing… It's like a hobby inside a hobby it made the way I view my corals completely different...my camera was the best thing I bought in this hobby I get so much more from everything from it...
I know what you mean bro...SPS require an extra level of dedication that LPS and softies dont need. Definitely spend that available time with your son and family...you will never get those moments back...I got a boy and girl myself so I completely understand.
Well, hope one day soon you get back into SPS...you were very good with them thats why we like to see you growing them and posting eye candy shots.
Wow that's an awesome list you got going on over there… Going down it makes me smile because a lot of those on this list or some of the stuff that we had in circulation between our little circle of reefers in this area… A lot of those I actually had in my tank as well..great taste in coral BTW... I've actually got bitten by the acro bug again...bad!!! You'll be seeing some more sticks from me soon... And getting a p.m. from me as well:xd:
Thanks..yes its a no namer...ill think of a name to make it sound cool :bigsmile:
Thanks! I am just getting back to things..
