we'll I got a new lens!!!

[macawmagic]

A xmas present to myself was a new lens. Thankfully I found a local reefer and traded him some coral for it. It's nothing special, but it beats taking pictures from my hallway of my tank with my 75-300 lens. LOL. This is all from my kit lens, 18-55. Canon EOS 20D. Nothing professional, but I think i'm getting better. I was also messing around with the lighting and manual settings a little.

Side note. I think I also have enough money from my grandparents for xmas to pay for tuition next semester and then buy the Canon 100mm Macro! woohoo!!!

LOL...left side has a de xm 10k. right side has some random de bulb becuase the ceramic/metal end on my xm 10k exploded pretty much and I can't find the reciept to return it. then...there's 2x 36" t5's that have purple bulbs in it. 1 36" purple pc. and 1 36" blue pc. LOL. Basically stuff I had lying around. I'm working on getting either 48" t5 actinic or 48" vho actinic. Theres a guy local selling 2 2x110 watt vho with actinics for $50 a piece, but I lost his phone number when I got my new phone. URGH!!!
