Awesome color on those Blastos Scott !
My LFS has some that are lime green but $130 is just too rich for my blood...

many thanks Scott, exactly this I wanted to know.
I have not seen a Blasto in this great colour up to now yet in germany!

once again, she is wonderful.

Beautiful Wellsi Doni !
The polyps are HUGE, can you get a closer shot of the mouth ?

Woodstock · 08-18-2007, 08:37 AM

Sure. I'll take a pic later today. Right now I'm getting ready to hit a few LFS and also going to Down Under (LFS) in Garner for their anniversary party.

Beautiful Doni! Is that a Fox right above it?

hma · 08-18-2007, 05:52 PM

.... this is also a great Blasto.

why are most pictures they here are shown too dark? this picture is it, unfortunately, also. a great shot but a bit to dark. a bit more exposure time ore lower aperture and all these pictures are even better.

I would like to show to you this by minimum change of the Exif, with cioutlaw kind permission ?

Thanks! Yes, that is a fox coral. It has grown a LOT since I've had it.

OK,The tip should be no criticism, only one tip. The picture itself is wonderful.

here once again the Original by cioutlaw

and this is exactly the same picture, only F2.2 instead of F2.8
(or extend the exposure time. Instead of 6o / msec - 45 / msec (with the same result))

what program do you use to change that?
