Hey, I came across this awesome guide that alot of professionals use to take amazing/trick shot photographs. I just want to share with you all because it seriously helped me out tremendously. I feel like a professional now lol! I even sold some of my work for some good money!
ReplyDeleteJust Google ( Monster Snag ) under [ Photography ] to see what I mean.
You are very Welcome! :)
WOW! Great video, really stunning pics. Any advise on singling out and getting pics of fast moving platy fish?
ReplyDeleteHi, bought the BG from aqua-maniac . com
ReplyDeleteGreat video! Could you provide any info on background in your tank?
ReplyDeleteHi, the video was aimed at beginners. Shooting in RAW then using editing software was not the focus of the video, I was just trying to get the basics over.
ReplyDeleteI might make another video covering those aspects.
Thanks for the vid but i was just wondering why not shoot in raw so that you can have the best quality image which you can tweak maybe in lightroom or photoshop.
ReplyDeleteHi mate, I left the lights on so I could be seen on camera :)
ReplyDeleteI only have the tank lights on when I'm taking pictures. You'll have to let me know when you've taken some pictures with your D5000.
Ps. Thank you and I hope you're well
Awesome video! I plan on trying out these settings with my Nikon D5000 the next time I take some shots.
ReplyDeleteWhy don't you turn the room lights off? There's less reflections from objects in the room so you get just images of the tank/fish not a foreground mist of yourself (if that makes any sense).
Thanks again for the tips. I look forward to giving these a shot. I'll let you know how where my endeavors lead me.
great information thank you mark.

ReplyDeleteHi what tank do you have
ReplyDeletegood vid. alot of helpful tips. thanks
ReplyDeleteHi there and thank you. I pick up the power head in an aquatic auction and tbh I can't remember the name sorry. I'm buying a wave maker soon off eBay search wavemaker :)
ReplyDeleteIt will be uploaded soon
ReplyDeleteThank you
ReplyDeleteIf the other cichlid is very aggressive all the time and is causing the tank mates loads of stress I would remove it TBH
ReplyDeleteAll doing great pal - I promise I'll make an update video soon
ReplyDeleteHow are all the fry
ReplyDeleteI remember to ask, I have this cichlid try to spawn but other cichlid try to disturb and attack them.. help please, don't know what to do.. thank you.
ReplyDeletethanks for the latest updated videos....love it!!
ReplyDeleteNice set of videos, recently subscribed to your channel. What type of powerhead is that running is your tank? Or is that a filter outlet? I just got an AquaClear 30 powerhead, seems okay, but a little noisy with the aeration feature turned on.
ReplyDeletehere's an interesting concept- what effect does color have on the fishes' behavior? I plan to conduct an experiment with a broken dslr covered in light tan masking tape. If the outcome is any different at all, I don't know if it would be that the lighter color is less threatening, or that it is simply harder for the fish to see. I also plant to do one with the lens front uncovered to see if that has any different effect. In the meantime, leaving a camera close to the tank also helps. great vid!
ReplyDeleteU should do a vid of a load of pics u have taken if pos
ReplyDeleteLol thanks Marc, were pretty excited (gotta get the little one interested in fish!)
