Maybe at our next swap/meet you could give us some photography tips. I have a Canon T1i but have never been able to take pics that look that good!

It will be an event no one will want to miss ! Lots of planning is under way, and all of you will hear of it soon. :-)

It's kind of sad to have such a nice camera and use it on auto. I've just never taken the time to learn how to tweak things. Sounds like the fall swap/meet is going to be a great one!

Wonderful pics Jon - how did you get that black background like that was it part of the tank?

allierw - I too have a decent DSLR and can't take a good picture unless it's on 'auto' , very frustrating. I try 'manual' and try the low aperture and high shutter but it's all blurry.

Guess I joined the forum a week to late and missed the fall meetup ... I'll try for the next one.

This helps contrast with fish color. I keep the entire room dark and black so all you see is fish.

Do you have links to some pics of your 'fish room' ? I'd love to check them out. What do you do to 'hide' the filter/heaters/tubes?
