    Ghost Tetras

    They are Albino Longfinned Blackskirts, Gymnocorymbus ternetzi, but I like to call them Ghost Tetras...

    Technically you seem to have recorded these shots very well. No evidence of glare or glass.
    There is a nice gracefulness (if theres such a word) to the first one.

    I have a total lack of respect for anything connected with society, except that which makes the roads safer, the beer stronger, the food cheaper, and the old men and old women warmer in the winter and happier in the summer. Brendan Behan

    Thanks!

    I really appreciate your comments. These are some of the first shots I got after switching back to Canon, and it is very nice to see someone likes what I have done with it!

    Hi Almo,

    I really like that first shot. Nice work. Cool looking fish too. Are their eyes just naturally dark, or could you adjust the lighting or exposure to brighten up the eyes? Just an idea. Cool shot regardless.

    Hey Paul,

    The eyes are naturally very dark. I can not even see the inner pupil with my naked eyes. I was surprised the first time I saw it in a picture...lol
