New coral shots from my reef tank!

[Sharkbait]

The new corals are settling in quite nicely, and are finally photogenic. :mrgreen: It's a type of leather coral. I used my new sync-cord to fire the flash down from the top of the tank, rather than head-on like usual. Gives a very different lighting effect.

This is a closeup of one of the smaller leathers. Each little lump is about the size of a pinhead, if that. Shot was taken with a +7 closeup filter (hence the short DOF)

Fantastic! Have I mentioned how much I love your tank shots?? It doesn't even look like it's in a tank! Looks like the bottom of the ocean!
