Nice and Lush fore ground ~!
Question : Why are all your pictures angled from the side? I mean

Hi Cal,
It's because I'm a lousy photographer....
Something about the water & the fishes that calms me down.
Mike, try to put your camera on somewhere stable, up your ISO to maybe 800 or 1600 if you want, don;t use your single flash, open up aperture to 5.6 and shutter speed to 1/30 (this muz trial and error)... do this in M mode...
Btw, what lens you using now? 17-85? What zoom you use? Just make sure that your shutter speed number is not smaller than the focal length you using, then no handshake... Anyway, the lens has IS... On it... You can push your shutter speed even lower...
Then you can take frontal liaoz... only that you see streaks of fishes due to low shutter...

No, Michael . No such intention at all.
I was wondering if it is a technique to avoid the reflection of the flash.

No worries Cal,you are right in a certain way. Workload is neckbreaking so didn't have time to explore the features of the camera. Been trying to pick up but there is only 24 hours to a day....
PS: my photoshop sulks too....

Cal, can you camera set the shuttle speed? If cannot, then off your flash, set your camera on a steady support, switch off surrounding lights and then take the picture...
You will have streaks of fishes, but no flash reflection...
AQ is really like FedEX...
Thanks for the quick reply Vincent.... Whats the rationale behind turning off surrounding lights?
Isnt the idea supposed to be getting as much light into the aperture as possible?
Just asking, I know nuts about cameras.
I happened to see your thread...
I am trying to force the camera to open the aperture longer so that more light from your tank can enter your aperture...
But I usually still shoot with the surrounding lights on...
Anyway, the theory of reflection is that when there is more lights from the outside than the inside of the tank, you see the reflection on the glass... So you try to ensure that there is more light behind the glass than in front of the glass... Hope you understand what I am saying...
I will try~!
Thanks for sharing.
