My photog skills BLOW!

[kevin95695]

My photo skills blow chunks, so don't beat me up. But after taking pictures with my cellphone for months I can't wait to get some pics of our reef out there after Santa brought the Olympus 770SW. Most of these pics are out of water and at random exposure/whitebalance/focus/etc.

My wife and kids are just happy that I'm doing something other than pacing the roof with a shotgun after the recent storm/blackout.

Here goes...

Life support. This will be the life support system for frags of our beloved corals during the 75g to 150g upgrade.



This is frogspawn at about 8 heads after purchasing 2 heads from Your Reef about a year ago.



This is RBTA from Exotic being hosted by a naked clown from Your Reef. Focus is bad I know.



This is a somewhat blurry pic of some Paly's I dig that I most likely got from Coral Reef Shop. Upper right is a recent acquisition of what I believe to be A. Valida from Matt/Fish Planet.



This is a Yellow Slimer (et al) beginning to show signs of growth that I picked up from Lyscer in ID/UT as an early Christmas present...



This is a killer cap frag I got from Ed/drdoolittle from NVR for transporting a reactor... It's hard to see, but there is a few heads of zoas at the base and this cap is 3-4" tall!



This shows some clams/zoas/etc. at the bottom of the "bowl".

The clam shelf...



What is so far my favorite coral: A frag of what I believe to be A. Nana from a colony miracles38 is 'babysitting' (with flash)...



Without flash...



SPS Canyon with flash and fish...

Your pics are better than mine. Next time try a get a pic of that big squamosa i sold you. It looks like it has grown quite a bit since it left.

The frags looks good Kevin.
