I used to have a 125 gallon tank....had an Arijuana in it and he was just getting big and then he jumped out of the tank one day while I was gone....found him dead....I gave up because I loved that fish....

I can feel your pain. At one point I had 17 aquariums and was breeding freshwater angelfish. Boy, did I get tired of cleaning tanks and making water changes! I'm down to one tank, now.

Great shots!

Pat, is that Nemo you captured? Taking photos in an aquarium can be challenging, keep up the great work!! I'm curious if you have been able to do any product shots since moving to Ga.

Thanks Jeff... Each attempt I get a little better.... On the product, only once... Ran across a guy needing some shots for a website which I helped him with.. Thats it other than some practice shots I did for some of the challenges..

You take some very good pictures all the time but I really think you have a special talent in the product shots that you use to do. Don't give up on the idea because I really think you could go a long way if you pursue it. You might make a book with some of your photos in it and try showing it to a few people. Or you might email some of your shots to different companies. It will only take one "YES" to get you going. If you email some shots only send your very best and I would just send four or five with a shot explanation of what you can do. Make it short and to the point so it will have a better chance to be looked at and read and not tossed aside or deleted. You will get rejections but remember all it takes is one yes out of the bunch to get you on your way. Good luck!!!!!

Great shots Pat, I have always wanted a saltwater fish tank but do not spend enough time at home to warrant one.

Nice shots Pat. The 105 is doing a great job. Not to mention the one hitting the shutter.
