anyone want to learn how to take good photos of your corals please ask here?

I'll try my best to answer them or if you have photos you want me to color correct or edit link me your dropbox files
I don't touch the saturation slider on these and these are all my personal collections
Link to send me your raw files for me to color correct https://www.dropbox.com/request/fuuO7yqF7FNG7dIi6mUB

The club had a well known photographer come out and talk to us about taking pictures and editing and... If you guys bug Greg Carroll, im sure he can get him to come and do another meeting/presentation.

If your in my area in can bring your camera over my house and I can show you what I do and how I process the images. Let me know Garden Grove isn't to far.

Lol not secrets more like try to understand why you shoot it that way so you can edit it the same way. I shot canon and Sony and get the same results

Are you using a orange filter on these? Sort of looks like it.

I have a Nikon Camera and a 60 and 105 Macro lens and I still cannot figure out how to take a picture, stupid camera sits in the bag. Any way to get a lesson in Cypress and show me how to shoot my tank with my camera? I have some nice frags or cash:)
