Are you sure the shutter speed is 1/6 or 1/8s? The photos are clear and don't see movement sign of the emperor tetra (unless the fish stayed still). The 4th photo is not in-focus on the head. And, the full tank shot is nice IMO.

yeah he didnt really move very much while i took the pictures of it. i know the otos head is alittle out of focus but it looks neat..to me at least..haha

Geoff, are these shot on Auto? that shutter speed is REALLY low. The first one is the best, but it can use a bit of "punch" in post processing.

[Geoff03]

they arent in full manual, i can change things around. but i dont have any other flashes to use but the cameras so i try and keep the shutter pretty slow soi they turn out. would you recommend turnign the pseed up alot and using thr flash?
