sumthin_fishy Enthusiast Posts: 237 Kudos: 314 Votes: 16 Registered: 13-Aug-2004	Ok after breezing thru Calilasseia's essay and keithgh's topic i've decided to try to take some photos of my new shellies. i'm using a olympus M-mini digital, macro mode with ISO200 and no tripod (tank is at ground level ) they are still abit grainy and blurred. any tips for sharpening the pics? I've given up trying to take pics of my multis... they just dont stop moving! http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a160/z2272579/P1270027edit.jpg http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a160/z2272579/P1270035edit.jpg http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a160/z2272579/P1270042edit.jpg

Now you'll have to share more pics All my shellies I had to order online. Stapps had been a favorite of mind for a very long time and I finally got mine earlier this month ~~~~~~~~~~~~ There is water at the bottom of the ocean
