Default Fluorescence pics

After getting a new camera I purchased a few tools to capture the fluorescent pigments in corals. I am just starting so these are on the experimental side, hope you like. feel free to critique.

So to capture the fluorescence in the coral you need blue gel filter on a flash or a source of light ie blue led brighter the better. Then a yellow filter on the lens to really see it. The hard part is focus if your light source isn't bright enough really hard to focus in. Glad you like the photos and Couchrugby Thanks for setting me up with the proper equipment.
