Hi,

I just happened to stumble onto this forum and am glad to be here. I visit regularly the Fish Channel, Loaches Online, and Piranha Forums. I'll now add this to my regular activities.

I have taken many pictures over my life (51 years) but none as challenging as my fish through the glass and water, with screwy lighting, and fast darting fish. I am envious of those capable of capturing the beauty of these creatures.

I have always used a 35MM SLR and most recently when my wife's cheap digital camera broke, went out and purchased an entry level digital SLR. I am using a Nikon D40. It takes far superior pictures to the clunky digital we had and blows away my cell phone:). I just hope I can capture with it whats in my tanks.

With that said I look forward to reading, watching, and learning from you all.
 
Welcome Craig, glad you stumbled on to us. Please be sure to share some of your photos with us, looking forward to seeing them.
 
Welcome to APF, Craig. I think you may have been bitten by this bug: it's a challenge and it can be expensive, but it's very satisfying when you finally get it right. Please post some of your photos when you're ready.

Alan,

I have been bitten. In fact I upgraded my camera the other day from a Nikon D40 to a D80. Love the camera and will be adding some pictures as soon as I figure out all the buttons. :)
