Title: Some Fish Pics... Post by: bsfins on April 09, 2006, 03:26:05 am Well, I caught this fairly rare sight in my aquarium just now...This is My Stars and stripes Puffer fish (fat albert).Why it's so rare,I've not found any rhyme or reason why he puffs.So 99% of the time,I see him Puffed,by the time I run get the digital camera,turn it on,he's back to normal.This is the larger of my 2 puffers..He's about 7-8 inches (non puffed).The size of a small basketball when fully puffed.
He's about 80% puffed in the pics,if he's 100% puffed he's nothing but a ball...there is still alot of his tale not puffed in the pics.He's got an eye infection in the first couple of pics,he's being treated...The camera wouldn't take pictures any faster,so here he is Defalting (http://xs75.xs.to/pics/06140/P_1.jpg) (http://xs75.xs.to/pics/06140/P_2.jpg) (http://xs75.xs.to/pics/06140/P_3.jpg) (http://xs75.xs.to/pics/06140/P_4.jpg) (http://xs75.xs.to/pics/06140/P_5.jpg) (http://xs75.xs.to/pics/06140/P_6.jpg) (http://xs75.xs.to/pics/06140/P_7.jpg) Title: Re: Some Fish Pics...

Title: Re: Some Fish Pics... Post by: bsfins on April 11, 2006, 02:00:10 pm Kodack easyshare cx3700 3.2 MP,usually when I take pics of my aquarum I run the exposure time down as far as I can.
That night,I just hit auto,and forgot to turn off the flash,so I turned the flash off,then the camera started bugging out.The red light on the back kept coming on like the battery was dead,and it wouldn't hardly respond.After the first one,I I didn't see a dead battery icon,so I said screw it...keep shooting pics as fast as I can..... Same batteries in the camera,start it up...bam,bam,bam...no red light,it works fine...so something wierd happened that night....I'm amazed the pics look that descent... Title: Re: Some Fish Pics...
