I’m working on taking better pictures for everyone. Even my best don’t seem to do justice so I wonder what methods everyone uses for taking pictures!?

I have a couple articles on how I do photos for coral. The bit items are:
- try to keep ISO at about 100
- if it's dark, add more lights for the photo
- use macro lenses (slr camera) and/or macro filters
- use an orange filter

Your photos look good. I think they need a lower ISO, maybe a macro filter, and a tripod to make those work with a fast enough shutter.

Hope that helps! :)
