Some top down shots from tonight

The kids are in bed and was a little board so figured I would try some top down shots. A few turned out pretty decent. I found the key is to push the light fixture out of the way and to get right over top the coral you are trying to take the picture of. Let me know what you think!

Thanks Kevin! I really appreciate it! That is one of my favorites. It is growing fairly quickly. I got it from another local reefer. His colony is a very nice table.

if it ever gets big enough, would you be willing to part with a snipping of #3?
