Photography Portfolio

Finally got around to updating this. Had to sift through around 10GB of pictures from the last few years cuz I suck at maintaining things... Well its almost updated >.> there are a few pics missing. A few I possibly lost when my last hard drive died . Anyway enjoy. Let me know which one is your favorite! I will update this when I add more pics. Vast majority of pictures shot with a Panasonic Lumix FZ-28 a few with a old Canon S1 IS. If you don't notice I have some kinda obsession with water.

Portfolio is located here

slideshow is here, would recommend the slide show, it will only show the first 100 pictures though. Just thought you should know if you actually get to the end.

lol, that photo of the baby Deer is stunning
I've got the FZ28 but its pretty crap, especially for aquarium fish shots.

Odd I don't have problems with it. Not a lot of cameras are made for shooting fish. I have lots of light over my tanks, which no doubt helps with pictures. It is still for the camera pretty low level light. Camera naturally wants to compensate for this. Shooting in Auto will get you a lot of crap. My old Cannon S1 IS was good for shooting fish, but pretty crap for everything else. I use my FZ28 completely standard as I got it out of the box. I do want to get a couple filters for it at some point down the road. I love my camera though. It a couple years old and I don't want to know how many thousands of pictures I have taken with it. All I have for it is an extra battery and 2-16GB SD cards. Also a fancy $40 pelican 1150 case since I take it with me kayaking, that box has saved its life before so it was worth it. I've taken it to Mexico, lots of various places in Minnesota and Wisconsin, on a trip into the BWCA and other places.

It never focuses on the fish, only on the glass or water, so I have to use manual focus Yes its crap for aquarium shots

This is where maybe I should read the manual lol! IDK if I have ever put mine in manual focus. I know manual mode and how to adjust shutter speed, F stop, ect... Not quite sure on manual "focusing". Yeah most cameras these days like the glass. Get an old one that is too stupid to detect glass. Below are a few of many pics I have taken of my fish in aquariums with this camera. It does take lots of shots to get a good picture. Most important is making sure the room is dark and you have as much light as possible on the tank. Don't chase fish around trying to get a pic, wait till the are moving slowly or are still. Biggest factor is light levels. Lower light lower shutter speed makes it harder.

These are from my own tanks

These two were in LFS tanks.
