Actinic pictures (blue warning)

  • bunchawhitesweb

Taking pictures under actninic lighting only is rather difficult and results can be very disappointing. Using a digital camera, take as many as you like until you achieve success. These were taken with a Fuji S602Z under 220w of VHO '03' lights. I adjusted the camera's "white balance" setting and switching to Macro, these are the results after resizing and sharpening.

I really like how this Golden Acropora sp. came out. Below is the normal view, Above is a Top View.
