He''s a pretty boy!  Yep, I will just have to make it out there.  Will be a nice Sunday drive.  I''m starting to move in next week so hopefully won''t be too long.  I think the moving is going to be a drawn out process but, bit by bit over the next few weeks.<

>Talk to you soon.<

Hey Lloyd,<
><
>Nice first attemps at photographing the fishes. it is not very easy getting that focus thing right.. And the camera i think does have a lot to do with it.<
><
>as for getting good pics of the red tropheus,...ha ha i have taken about 100 of the kachese and i think maybe 3 turned out OK, but nothing great yet...It can be damm frustrating, before you know it 3 hours has passed!<
><
>I find the best time is at night, with the tank lights on and no flash as it washes out the fishes, you just need to have a really steady hand. Good luck with it.<
><
>And whats this about Jon moving???? is he heading to moura? Mick, Rockhampton<

hey mick,<
><
>ha ha, no jon isn''t moving here, we just tossing up the idea to have the next cq fish nuts bbq here. tropheus are good fun to try and photo,  i did try a few things as u mentioned about flash and night time, i also did try 2 different cameras, both had totaly different results, good thing these digi cameras can delete crapy photo''s i hate have the bill for same amount of photos taken on film. going to ask the question soon on what sort of camera to use for best results, do u no of any good articles on fish taking photograpy?<

there is some really good info on the ACE forums, in the photo pages there is even a link to a camera review article, in the sticky pages there are a few pages of usefull pointers.<
