Same Clown Different Look

[paddyob]

Really no filter?

The clowns look superimposed in some shots. Too bright for the background.

When I use flash... it washes out the colors.

Wow.

What equipment are you using? Settings? I would like to try this with my own. I am bad at tank shots. Could use some pointers.

PM me if you don't mind.

Thanks,

Patrick

Oh I forgot I had the opaque diffuser on the flash and the flash was in manual mode set to between 1/32 and 1/16 power at a 45 degree angle to the glass about 10" away from the glass.

I use a Nikon d300 set to either full manual/or app priority...sometimes I'll set it to shutter priority. Nikon 60mm macro and a Nikon sb800 flash

I think I need a flash like yours! I bet you could make corals look AWESOME.

I vote for #2 as well!

I love number 4 and 5.
