Very nice, eins! What do you use for white balance? A preset or custom? Do you use a grey card?

 

Very Nice shots Bill!!! Post a pic sometime of the coral you got from me, I'd love to see it's color in your tank..

 

excellent pics.

 

Hey Bill how bout some more details on those pics. They are amazing. Are you just shooting in RAW and setting just Aperature and Shutter or do you use other settings on the camera?
I have been trying just Aperature and Shutter and then Using Capture NX to adjust the other settings. It seems like all of the settings on the Nikon can be made after the fact in capture NX and even removed if wanted later. Pretty cool really. I haven't done this with tank shots yet, just work stuff. I am planning on playing with Capture NX and tank shots this weekend.
So how do you do it?

if he told ya, he'd hafta kill ya.

 

Ya, I figured I may be risking my life for such info. I guess I wouldn't want to give it up either. Especially if we are going to do a contest.

 

Just as a heads up... If anyone wants to try to make a few bucks, many reef magazines and books purchase quality photos. They also take articles. Photos are around $25-50 each and articles are $250 as a starting point. Same picture or article can be sold to multiple outlets.
