Fish shot

[Mullet]

Here is a photo I shot last night. This is my first post on this forum, but I have really enjoyed looking around. I have learned quite a bit and am thrilled I stumbled upon it. My wife bought me a Rebel XT for my birthday a couple of weeks ago and I am having alot of fun learning the camera. This doesn't compare to anything here, but just wanted to share

Hi Mullet, welcome to the forum.

Nice shots!, what sort of fish are they?

[Mullet]

Thank you. The top one is a wild caught lamprologus occelatus. A little shell dweller form Lake Tanganyika. The second is a neolamprologus brichardi from Karlani Island, also Lake Tanganyika. I keep quite a few tanks and fish and learning to photograph them is challenging and fun

They are lovely clear shots. Try to get in closer if you can or maybe do a closer crop!

Those are nice! Tank photography is hard... Theres a bunch of info on fish photography at aquatic-photographydotcom . I'm not a member over there, but theres some good info over there if you are into fish.
