Welcome to the Photo Gallery Spotlight. Each
month we'll showcase a particularly nice aquarium photograph, taking the time to discuss
the identification and husbandry of the animal pictured as well as information relating to
the technical details of how the photo was taken. Readers are encouraged to send
images (and details on the organisms pictured, as well as the details of how they captured
the shot) they would like to submit for possible inclusion in this feature to terry@advancedaquarist.com . For submissions
that are published in Advanced Aquarist, the author will receive a $25.00 gift certificate
from one of our participating advertisers.
This
is a recent photo of my female maroon clownfish (Premnas
Biaculeatus) and my Stichodactyla
Gigantea anemone. The photo was taken through a
3/8-inch tempered glass aquarium wall and
approximately 8-inches of the water column. Some
slight retouching was done in Photo Shop – I boosted
magenta to bring out the color of the clownfish.
