Awsome pics as usual.

Is that size difference between the Mota pair typical?

 

[Nic]

your photos and cichlids are amazing look forward to your pics all the time.... those GG are very nice as well

 

[Aquamojo]

Great shots as always Mo. Do you have any recent shots of your green umbee?

This is the last before I put it in the pond:

do you do any shot of photoshopping or editing of pics after to take them?, i mean other than cropping, just more major stuff.

great as usual.

I shoot in Camera RAW which give a lot of latitude in adjusting exposure and color balance. The only other things I look at in Photoshop are the levels and any noise in shadows. I just shoot a lot more than I show. Start with a good exposure shot at the highest possible aperture, lowest ossible ISO...look for a well composed shot.

could i also get a little info on the mota and mang pics-

which camera, glass, all the bells and whistles used..

Nikon D300, 105mm Macro Nikor VR lens, Nikon SB-800 fllash with flash diffuser.

Awsome pics as usual.

Is that size difference between the Mota pair typical?

Proportionately...I would have to say yes. As they age, the female fills in a little more...or it least it looks more apparently larger.

Great pics, the female got some nice breeding colors

i have shot in RAW and i personally love it, i haven't got the proper PS equipment to work with it on my computer, but i'm definetly going to get some. what do you use to veiw RAW and work with it?

what is your review of the D300 compared to your other nikons?, i haven't seen anynody useing them yet.

 

[Aquamojo]

I just got the D300. No real impression other than "new toy".

I use the RAW plug in that works in Photoshop. I also use Nikon's Capture NX. That program has a bit of a learning curve...but worth it. PS just cuts donw on my processing time of the pictures.

 

[varanio]

great shots the quality is insane!

 

[Opiate]

[CichlidFiend]

It's crazy, even if i saw those fish in real life I doubt they would look as good as your pictures. Great fish and beautiful pictures.
