    Thanks Cheryl, I used DxO Optics Pro 8 for post productiong processing. A good third party program like DxO or Lightroom will help greatly as long as you shoot in RAW mode.

    Thanks

    Beautiful tank! Congrats. I'll definitely get some ideas for my mixed reef from that pic.

    Fantastic shot John! I went to the link and then magnified it. Really able to catch a lot of details.

    I noticed your cyphastrea polyps kind of semi extended. I have some as well, and they have NEVER fully extended, and I have no idea why. It's not lighting or placement, so I begin to think it's a parameter that I'm missing. My ph runs on the lower end of the spectrum 7.9ish, and that is the only thing I can guess...possibly...maybe.

    Any thoughts? Do your's come out more typically?

    Thanks, I have been enjoying doing panos since I got PSE 11. I am going to do some landscape panos when winter is over here most likely.

    When my pH is running higher they come out nicely on the Cyphastrea. I have been having a little trouble with stability of params so I think that is adding to it also.
