    Check out my Yellow Watchman Goby.

    I used a Tripod mounted Canon 40D with a 100mm Macro and 25 II Extension Tube. Shot at 4 secs, F/32 ISO 200. I can't believe the picture came out this good having a 4 second exposure. I was soo close to the fish too. This is the original picture (no cropping)..

    Yea, I got lucky with this shot. I was actually taking a picture of a brain, until he came right up against the glass, and just stood there looking at me. All I did was turn the head on the tripod, adjust the height, and hit the shutter button. I would have never thought I would have gotten a good shot while I was waiting for the 4 second shutter to release. I was pretty amazed it came out this good.. I only got one shot, and it was nice!!!
