I took some macro shots the other day and I actually got a few good ones.

I realized after taking the pics that you really never truly appreciate the beauty of these corals until you get up close and personal.

While it is an awesome Digital; Macro is not it's strongest point as it has trouble auto focusing and I am not good enough with the manual settings to be consistent.

In order for it to work well I need to fashon a box that can be pushed right up to the glass.

Nice pics. And thanks for the link on the camera. I'm trying to find one that takes decent pics that doesn't carry a heavy price tag!

[li-mike]

Outside of the Macro side this is an awesome camera at a great price. I think I got mine for 329.00 with a 1 Gig Card and the Printer Dock. BTW I have followed ur tank for quite a while. Keep at it.

Nice photos and lovely coral! I agree that at times, we forget just how beautiful they are.
