Hi, Pals
Unfortunately, I’m too busy lately…but finally, I got a new lence - Canon 50 mm/f2.5 Macro
and changed this terrible CANON kitlence…
And so, I’m beginning to sharing… with this stuff is much easier…
Those are the first five photos (from future series) of my Rainbows. Hope You will like them…

Good series Hristo of some nice looking rainbow fish. Photos number 3 and 4 are my favourite of the set. I particularly like the lighting in the 4th picture although it may had been improved with a bit more DOF as it is a little soft in the tail area. Your new lens is picking out the detail well and you are showing good control on the exposure.

Cheers

Congrats on the new lens, Aquasaur.

#1 & #2 - eyes a bit soft. OOF, DOF or slow shutter maybe?

#3 is sharp, though a bit dark. Anal fin is also slightly off.

Your next target is definitely a neat flash setup. :D
 
Congrats on the 50 Hristo. Looking good so far. Your rainbows are really clean looking. Mine have funky scales.
 
Thanks for comments, Pals.
Yes, RazorBlade, my next target is definitely a neat flash setup…
I’m thinking about Speedlite 580 EX or 430 EX…is it a big difference about quality between them :question:
Or someone will recommend me something better…:idea: :question:

Now I want to share next photos of my Rainbows – Glossolepis Incisus
Maybe You will curious to see the difference between some of my best shots of these fishes with CANON 350D Kit lens (the first 5 photos)
And my last shots with Canon 50 mm/f2.5 Macro (the last 7 photos)

Excellent! The photos of the 2 males in 'combat' are outstanding. Well done!
