Jim,
Let me clear it with the wife first. We have family coming over the next day and I need to be sure we are ready.
Brian,
All of these were taken with a Nikon D40, SB-400 flash, and Sigma 150mm macro lense.

Mike,
The invite is open. That's just the only night I can do it this week and on Thursday I take off for the island for a week or so. If not Wednesday, when I return. But lemme know if Wednesday works or not. It could be fun.

Mike great job again. You caught many of the harder to photograph fish very well. Especially the coral beauty and the purple tang.

Thanks Aaron. Those were definitely the toughest to get out in the open and also the toughest to get good color results.
