Dorado

[thefishguy7]

Just got this little guy from Rapps- about 3". (Thank you John (Itsbadlands) for dropping him off)
Earlier this evening, I asked Rallysman how to take better pics of faster moving fish. I took his advice and what a difference! Please excuse the debris on the tank bottom.

Thanks.

Tons of light. The more light you have, the faster the shutter will be (in auto mode). Also, if your camera has shutter priority mode use it and a minimum of 1/125 shutter speed.

If all else fails, add some halogen shop lights. The color will be yellowish, but that can be fixed in photoshop.

Thanks...let's see some of your dorado!
