I think I am close to decent.

I bugged you guys for a good 6 months.

3 days ago I got a Canon Powershot S3. I think I have gotten some good shots. I started a thread in my home clubs forum I was wondering if the photography guru could give me some pointer as I try diving in to the manual settings to get macros.

Thanks for the help

It looks like you need to set a little negative exposure compensation- so the pics won't be so bright. It's a common thing to have to do because the lighting is so contrasty in our aquariums. If you have the manual check out exposure compensation and how to set it. If you can't figure it out holler and I'll find a manual on-line and go thru it with you.

The exposure thing helped. I added some new pics and got a new avitar.

Thanks greg.
