A few of my fish.

Ty so much for looking.

Those are so cool. How did you get those shots?

Beautiful. The last one is mesmerizing.

Those are really amazing pics! :eek: :)

Totally awesome !!!! I love these pics !!! :thumbs up

Thank you for the comments! I really enjoy aquarium photography. Also any pet or animal photography as well.


I took the shots with a Nikon D70s SLR, and an external flash(SB600) over the top of the tank. I use the Nikkor 60mm macro lens, so I can get in close.

The hardest thing about aquarium photography I find, is the camera flash bouncing off of the glass and messing up the shot, also it doesn't look natural having a fish lit up from the side, we don't see them that way in an aquarium. But, you need a flash to Freeze the fish, otherwise it will look blurry even with the best cameras.

I have been browsing all the great shots here. I will have to post a few of my old doggy, he is 13. :)


Thanks again!

wow amazing shots.........the blue fish is sooo vivid.

Great shots! :thumbs up
