What camera/lens are you using?
Looks great!

Thanx for the compliment... Still in the process of learning to take better pictures...
Was using 350D + EF-S 60mm F/2.8... Together with 550EX placed at an angle. f/13 @ 1/200 shutter speed...
may i know what software did you use to shrink it down to the permitted image size/resolution?
There is a few software available in the market or even free one to do it.
I think irFanView lets you do it and is free...
I used my Canon Digital Professional software to do it.
I sometimes use Photoshop and save the photos using Save for Web option.
The picture I posted was in fact totally unsuitable for printing as I only used 150dpi and medium jpeg compression quality coupled with reduction of pixel for 2000+ down to 800x533... That was how I reduced the size and meet the requirements...
I'm curious, do insects macro and fish macro works the same? If so, would it be nice if the background be blured? Such as the bokeh?
Would it be nicer if the picture's bokeh is better? Just a question.
Cheers!

no not the same.. certain aspects fish photograpy is harder.. certain aspects.. insects is harder.. depends on what you're looking at..
For the background to be blur, the f-stop probably is less than 4? 5.6?
I don't really liek to shoot fishes at that f-stop as you probably will get the head nice and focused but the fins is blur as it takes a real patient person (read: choy) for the fish to be parallel to the glass...
Excellent work! I must agree that every time I see your pictures, your photography skills seem to improve. Great work and keep it up!
Cheers,
I have dwarf cichlids in my tanks! Do you?
