I think I may have finally figured out my macro lens

Yellow Shrimp
Tiger Shrimp
Amano Shrimp
Light Yellow Shrimp
New Bee?
Blue Shrimp He obviously didn't breed true

Amano Face

Anyone know of a good site that you can upload pics too? One that won't make me resize them?

Photobucket hasnt made me resize my recent pics with my Powershot, but I haven't figured out that camera yet, the files may not be huge.

Great looking pics, BTW! Are those yellows new? If not, are they breeding true for you? I've heard stories that they don't and thus haven't invested yet.

Got any more pics?

Whoa those are awesome! That one makes me want to get some Tiger Shrimp!

Thanks bdement, they are some nice looking Tigers, the babies are even better.

Hey Liz, my pics are over 3mb so I can't upload them to Imageshack without resizing them. I just got a laptop and unfortunately, Vista doesn't seem to have a nice photo viewer like XP had. I can't seem to resize any of my pics. It figures, I finally get a laptop and figure out how to use my macro lens and then can't seem to post decent pics

I don't have any babies from the Yellows yet but I have one that is beginning to show a saddle. I'll let you know if they breed true. Hopefully I will know in about six weeks or so.

Try http://www.flickr.com/. You can store your px original size.

Yeah, i took about 100 pics today and maybe half a dozen are worthy of posting. I'm still learning how to use the camera and lens

I'll see if I can upload a few more tonight or tomorrow.

Hey Tex Gal...the links I posted were from Flickr

I just don't like the way they are sized so small.

Can't you choose the size you want to post. In Flickr click on px. Got to top of px and click on all sizes. Choose your size. Grab the URL that comes up at the bottom - not the first one. You can post any of those you want by inserting image icon in this post. I don't have any problem posting any sizes. I have chosen the medium before.

I'm really not sure. I just selected Flickr since it doesn't require me to resize my pics

I'll have to look inot it later and see what I can figure out.

By golly you can, thanks Tex Gal.

I put a couple more pics up while I was playing around.

Mat, while your close-ups are in focus, most are poorly lit.
you might want to work on lighting issues now that you
have mastered your lens
