Nice shot.

13

Wow, Thanks!! I gotta admit that the wife snapped the pic while i lit it with a flashlight, team effort!.. Not that i ever need an excuse to go to DPA, but now i got a good one. The powerhead will come in handy for the frag tank i’m setting up! So, do i need to call ahead before going? i want Charlie to have time to roll out the red carpet, and chill the champagne in the winners circle.

Seriously though, we’re flattered, ALL the pics are great!

Thanks Charlie and Craig!

Charlie will be waiting for you and your PH has already been put aside.

We made sure to put the one without the impellar behind the counter for you ;D

15

What great pics! Congrats John :BEER

Craig, did mine come to you resized? I was pretty sure I sent them full size (like 3000 x 2000 pixels or something like that) either way they look great. >LOL<

I just picked up my powerhead, little disappointed though… no parade, streamers, or fireworks, and… i had to pay $62.99 for the impeller for it ! LOL

seriously,
thanks again guys!
i’ll get good use outta it.

Now i gotta get a good shot for reef-geeks. it would be sweet to win our 1st clam!

Very nice pic!! Definitely unusual!

It doesnt even fit with what you typically think of as reef photography. Its very stylized, almost like something you would expect to see in a photographer’s non-wildlife portfolio. Simply stunning.
