I also use one or two external flashes from above, sometimes with a diffuser and sometimes with the flashes pointing up towards a reflector/diffuser to get the light to bounce back evenly into the tank (I have white plastic sheets mounted underneath each level in my rack). The last alternative allows you to shoot in almost the entire tank without changing camera settings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Go4Long Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 ah cool...excellent set up from the sounds of things...I don't have an external flash...I shoot with a D300 and 50 mm 1.4...so I can pretty much shoot hand held in the dark...but definitely can't get results like yours without an external set up. gorgeous shots.
