    I really liked this shot I got of my green monti cap. Just thought I'd share.

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    I like the shot too. Montipora make interesting corals to photograph, they have a lot of shadows, angles and curves.

    Ooooh, that is a nice shot. Wish photos were displayed a little bigger here. I like looking at details.

    Right click on the picture and then click on properties and copy the link and paste it in the address bar at the top of your browser and you can look at the original which is really nice.

    Cool tip. In Chrome I had to click on "copy image URL" then paste and go.

    What ever happened to just clicking on the image to enlarge it? (I'll make a new post).

    I use a Sony DSC-H2OB. I've seen it called a bridge camera, somewhere in between a DSLR and a point and shoot.
    I have the ISO on the lowest setting, white balance on fluorescent3, Focus on center AF, Metering mode on center, no flash, DRO standard, increased contrast, increased sharpness. I got a lot of these settings of 2in10's and Coralline's threads and decided to try them, so thanks guys.

    Thank you. Their texture is very nice too, the ridges with the small polyps.

    It should soon, these things grow fast once settled into your tank.

    Thanks for the tip.

    I remember when it was like this too, but I didn't change anything with the ways I post my images. I can give you link to the original if you want.

    K+ everybody.
