Three tolerable shots of two of Sara's wrasses.

You know the title of this thread could be uh..... Never mind! ;)

Great shots as always Gary. I like the black, does that take you long to do?
 
You can work the thread title out with Sara. ;)

Thanks for the compliment. I need more time to work with the wrasses. They're just slightly easier than clownfish.

I don't introduce the black. The back of Sara's tank is black and it's rather deep front to back, so the flash die-off adds to the black because it doesn't reach the back of the tank. I don't like introducing backgrounds. Too much work and the edges of the fish bodies rarely look good.

Looking forward to meeting you in Grand Rapids.

That is AWESOME with the black! I will have to try that next time, my tank is only 18" wide and has a blue background, so I can't usually produce a deep black, even using flash. Next time I get over to Ardo's, or Jr's when he gets the 300 up, I will give that a try though.

I hope to make the GR swap, gotta make sure it is still OK with the wifey...
 
Marvin, more wrasse photos to come as soon as I get time to visit Sara again. I had a couple of other good wrasse shots, but there were too many microbubbles in the images and I didn't feel like cloning them all out.
