He sat still long enough to get some shots, I dont think he appreciated a camera being shoved in his face.

No ive not been back since, smallest ive seen must have been 4-5" in Wharf and other LFS. If I go I only end up spending money. :D

Its an old camera 8Mp Sony with an unimpressive 3x zoom. I had the lens shoved right up against the glass and must have took 50 shots. What I really need is to borrow the SLR from work.... and forget to take it back. :D

I have an SLR (not digital) but can't really figure out why tank / fish shots don't turn out

I really dont know enough about photography to know how to use SLR's properly but when you see the shots that people can get by changing the shutter speeds and settings it is truly remarkable what can be achieved.

yep that's what I'm talking about. I burnt an entire roll of film with it on the tank and NOT A SINGLE picture turned out. The guy who developed showed me the negative and it was blank except for one blurry cat pic.

JP, ask Kyle once he's done exams, he'll be all over that!
It is absurd to talk of one animal being higher than another. We consider those, when the cerebral structure/intellectual faculties most developed, as highest. A bee doubtless would when the instincts were.
