Here fishy…fishy…fishy!

Ya, so I was just tooling around one day… thinking about what it would take to capture decent shots of fish in my aquarium.

Needless to say, with low light levels it poses a challenge. I’d tried with f2.8 lenses but still found light lacking. Soooo…. decided to break out the manual focus Pentax A 50mm f1.7.

Managed to come up with this… my favourite being the first one.

It’s amazing what f1.7, shake reduction and little luck with manual focusing can achieve!
