A few fish pictures

All I can suggest is that you increase your lighting and shooting distance. F number keep as small as possible. Even if you have a big f number, due to extremely small depth of field, you can't get a whole fish in focus from a short shooting distance using a macro lens.

Also save image in a large RAW format but I believe that you know that.

way kind of lense do u use??

awsm photos

I have a standard three foot fish tank with 2 x18 w daylight plus 2 x 55 w compact 10000 K light.

The lens I am using is a Canon EF 100mm F2.8 L IS USM Macro. If I want to take a photo of the whole fish tank I will use a Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L II USM or Canon EF 17-40mm f/4 L USM L.

F-11 is for landscape photography not for photographing a fish tank with insufficient light.

I am always holding my camera in free hand, minimum working distance is 150 mm but I shoot from about 300 - 500 mm. That is the beauty of using a true macro lens.
