More shrimps needing ID's

14 January 2009 - 08:20 PM

Here are a couple of other shrimps that I haven't been to ID. Still have managed to get a decent crustacean book! As you can see one specifically lives on Xenia and the other in Sargassum...

Strange shrimp on nepthya soft coral

13 January 2009 - 01:51 AM

Oops forgot to add the photos...

I came across tiny shrimp on a nepthya soft coral and have still not got a decent crustacean ID book.

Can anyone help? Has anyone else seen one of these, does anyone have a better photo as mine isn't so good!

Thanks

PRINTING how big can I go?

01 September 2008 - 09:51 PM

I know very little about printing, I had some prints done while I was in the US and was very impressed at how come they out. I'm not thinking of doing some more...

I know that my Sony only does prints up to about 14inches. What is the biggest I can take photo's from Nikon D300 to, and what about other good digital camera's.

I know the Hasselblad is probably the best for size, for what about a camera not so expensive???

MORE FUEL SURCHARGES

08 August 2008 - 01:19 PM

I have just found out that there is one boat in Indonesia that is now adding yet more extra chargers to their clients, and get this - even after they have paid in pull...

First of all, can they do this legally?

And...

Has anyone heard anything about other boats world wide doing this?

LOMOGRAPHY looks like great fun!

01 August 2008 - 01:29 PM

I'm just wondering if there are any Wetpixel members out there that have ever tried Lomography? It doesn't have to be underwater, I'm just keen to hear from anyone who has any knowledge of this camera set up!

I love the marketing blurb that goes with this funky little camera, see below:

"We LomoGoldfish ought to be clear in our minds about one thing, though: too much severity, seriousness and correctness in a person's behaviour frequently leads to inflexibility and fundamentalism; too many rules and too strict a faith in same leads to narrow-mindedness and a blinkered view of things. which is the precise opposite of our so highly prized Fisheye view! So carry on being good humoured, funny and ironic with one another, be critical first of yourselves and your own main insights. and never forget one thing: You only have a couple of millilitres of brain matter, which is nowhere near enough to get to the bottom of and understand everything"
