Outstanding photos...I'm no expert...but I have shot a lot of aquarium species and I know first hand how difficult it can be.

Marine aquariums are my primary hobby and photography is evolving as a result of a desire to produce photos of my aquariums that can be as impressive as yours.

Wow! Those are amazing! The first and the last are my favorites.. I feel like I'm underwater WITH them.

How do you get them so clear and with no reflection?

These just might be the best tropical fish series I have seen on this forum Excellent exposure, colors and detail. My only nit would be that I would prefer a larger size on the photos.

Great shots through the glass. Not an easy task to accomplish.

WOW !!! As a long time keeper of tropical and marine tanks, I am in awe of these shots.. I have sat for literally hours on end trying to get shots like that. I have a 150 gal marine setup and the fish just won't get comfortable with a camera in theor face. I have even left it on a tripod right in front of the tank to see if they will get ued to it being there, but no luck. The fish in the photos are excellent specimens in very good health... Post more if you have them...
