I took another 500 shots today. This was the result. Still debating which picture to submit. I guess it shouldn't matter though. The clowns eggs will win. Great picture.

Good luck with deciding :) I like all three but partial to one.

I wasn't quite happy with the first 3 I had. I think my mind is made up. Like I said. IMO the clown eggs will win. It will get the 'cute' vote and the 'wow' vote. Great picture.:surrender: :dance:

You never know, I can't decide which of the three pics you posted recently I like best, everytime I think I have one picked out I change my mind. Lol

we have a lot of excellent photos to choose from this time around, I haven't decided which one I would vote for out of the current pictures if I had to this minute.

Seems like everyone is pulling out the big guns, :) lots of jaw droppers to drool over.

Get a magnifying glass and hold it front of the lens. Use the flash, it speeds up the shutter. Point and shoots work fine. If you camera has a white balance setting play with it for a while. I have found that setting my Sony to 'Florescence' and then as cool as possible (bottom of the list). That's with my Sony anyways.

You can read about all kinda of neat photography tips in this forum!

Well for some odd reason I can't upload my photo. I tried 2 different sizes from photobucket and tried uploading it from my computer. The forums 'says' it uploaded to the gallery successfully but it doesn't show up. Last month I had no issues at all. It would suck if I couldn't enter. I have even tried to upload from my wife's computer. Desperate I know.

hmm yeah i gotta mess with them.. i got a point and shoot.. a canon PowerShot SD1200 IS. trying to learn things and play with macro.

ive been tryin to get pictures of some clownfish.. THEY ARE IMPOSSIBLE.. constantly moving! is there a trick? shutter speed i guess?

i just dont know anything about cameras but since i got into this hobby ive been trying to learn. Im saving up for an SLR but being a full time student getting my MBA therefore finances arent great lol.

And Big Jay, are you serious about a magnifying glass? lol that works?
