Thousand of babies were born at the aquarium at the Pittsburgh Zoo.

Taken with my Canon 20D and I forget which lens...:dunno

    Ewwwwwwwww
    Great shots. I really like #1 (color, clarity, big and little jellies, and the little guy out of focus shooting down upside down on top--cute), though I also like how #2 makes clear just how many were born. eek7.gif Cool stuff.

    Special? Yes...cross my fingers! rolleyes1.gif

    I usually position the lens on the glass, no flash, and experiment with different f/stops. These pictures I used ISO 800 aperture priority from 2.0-2.5. My shutter speed ranged between 1/60 and 1/80. I checked the exif info and I used my Canon 50mm f1.8 II lens..camera was Canon 20D. Digital is cheap so I end up taking many, many, pictures. I love digital and don't miss film? at all. :D
