Re: PESO - Fishy Money (Monterey Aquarium)
Turned out very nice, Marnie. I'm glad that you were able to get some shots that worked for you. Hopefully you will share more of them. -- Best regards, Bruce Sunday, April 23, 2006, 5:30:10 PM, you wrote: Eac Before I went to Monterey I was smart enough to ask Bruce the settings he Eac used when he was at the aquarium.

That's quite nice, Marnie! A little soft but plenty of resolution for the composition to work. Good stuff! Godfrey On Apr 23, 2006, at 5:30 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: http://members.aol.com/eactivist/PAWS/pages/money.htm

I didn't expect super sharpness considering the conditions, but they came out pretty nice anyway. I'll share a few more later. Thanks, Godfrey. Marnie aka that Doe Person :-)
