Practice with Half-press

[1fish2fish]

I was practicing with the half-press focus method that Copper Arabian posted about... got about the same amount of decent pics as I do with full press though The light wasn't very good though and the fish were being uncooperative. But I figured I'd share some of what I got anyways.

Chomper (formerly "Nanners")






Pinkerton (aka Pinky)






Tropez (aka S.B.) His pictures particularly suck because I need to scrub the inside and outside of his tank.




Sondheim (aka Sugarlips)




There's also a couple more pictures in my spawn thread if you wish to check them out.

<3 "Chompers" and Pinky. I'm so glad they have a good home with you. I know I made the right decision. They were getting the least attention out of the fish I had because I had too many. I'm sure they're very happy with you!

Well they get tons of attention now. They're both in the kitchen so they get messed with morning, noon, and night.

LOL. Yeah, I'm glad. I mean, I fed them and kept the tank clean, but that was about it. Now I give plenty of attention to the 5 Bettas I have, and I think it's the perfect amount for me. I won't go over it.

If you have a tank light i find it best to shut off the flash on the camera and turn on the light on the tank and do the half press method. I still only get about one out of five that are good but they are of great quality! Good luck!

Sorry to double post but it also helps if there is very little light in the room but the tank light on.

I've found bettas look great in the sunlight.
