how is it?! i keep looking at it, but i cant pull the trigger yet :screwy:
It works exactly like it's supposed to, and it has already survived one full submersion in tank water (the speedlight and trigger both fell into my 3.5 gallon while turned on a couple days ago, but both have fully recovered).

the fish photos are underexposed and WB is off. Just saying.
Thanks for the constructive criticism. I know the WB was off; I had given up on messing with it until about a week ago... I couldn't figure out how to set it correctly before, since I am fairly new to dslr photography (got my first dslr in August), and there wasn't really much I could do about underexposure in the first page of pics since I didn't have an external flash setup then. I'm sure that now that I have the sb-600 I'll be able to improve my photography over time.

I never knew my senegal bichir had teeth until I took this pic today (you'll probably have to enlarge it to see them):

Few more pics from today, also:

^^^This one's not from today, but I don't think I've uploaded it yet.
 
Oh and I fixed my WB issue, but I wasn't able to get very many good pics thanks to the algae growing on my glass (that's the only issue I have with the speedlight, anything on the glass stands out 10x more when using the flash).
