PHOTO OF THE MONTH Contest for August, 2006

[darkdep]

Our Monthly Photo contest is a fun way to show off your fish and tanks.  Post your photo in this thread to enter!  Superior photo skills are not a requirement, an interesting picture is

Rules:

• Everyone is welcome to participate.
• You can make a single entry only.  Enter your best picture!
• Photos must be your own, and must be aquarium related.
• The photo must NOT have been previously entered in an OVAS photo contest.
• Entries will be accepted until August 25th.  Roughly a week of voting will follow, and the winner will be announced on August 31st.
• By entering a photo into the contest, you agree to grant OVAS specific usage rights to the photo (for possible inclusion in future photo galleries, newsletters, or promotional material).  You are NOT granting ownership rights, just usage rights.  You may watermark your photo with copyright information if you wish.
• Photos should be 800x600 or 1024x768 in size, preferably 1024x768.
• During voting, photos will be voted on by forum members.  One vote per person.
• Photo Quality matters, but the interest of the photo should come first.
• You CANNOT vote for yourself.  I will enforce this.

Good luck to all entrants this month!

This is my Western Rainbowfish (?) Melanotaenia splendida australis (obtained from Big Daddy) trying to blend in with a Red Tiger Lotus.

bitterman, I made your pic a little more manageable so we could see the whole thing and the page would load quicker - if you want to change it, just edit the [img width=xx] attribute.

The Rams have my vote.  What sort of Camera do most of you get by with for these shots?  Any standard digital?  My underwater photography career never really took off.

I`m using a Canon S1 IS.
