Normally I save my musings on fish and aquarium related writings for my other blog, which I update infrequently. This is not just a picture, however. This means I’m actually picking up my camera and learning how to use it. I still haven’t cracked open the manual to figure out where all the controls are on this particular camera. I’m just fiddling with it blindly.
After 300+ shots, this is one of the best. Unfortunately fish don’t sit still and pose for pictures. Taking pictures through glass also limits the angles you can take photos.
What should I name him, or is it her? This particular species is hard to identify gender, so maybe a gender neutral name would work.
Hello, there. My name is Matt, but on this website I just refer to myself as m@. I love all things Star Wars, food, beer, and music, especially The Beatles. I'm one who likes to be noticed and will sometimes say or do inappropriate things to get your attention. I'm perfectly complimented by my online and real life partner
ralph.
it might not be the most gender neutral name. but ralph is good. michelle will like it.
Nice shot! I know how hard it is to shoot fish – they’re always moving, and the reflective front glass kinda messes with the autofocus.
As for name? Why not blinky in honor of your fallen computers?
I am amazed that you had the patience to take 300+ shots of your fishes.
It’s very easy. I’m taking about 20 every 30 seconds or so. I supposed it’s like taking pictures of children at a playground, except that would be creepy since I don’t have kids.
Yes, I am. Thanks!
(an angel, if you didn’t get it)
And yes, I do like Ralph!
