Just a few shots, very challenging lighting. Had to use high ISO settings and now am thinking I have to get that fast lens. This was my scouting trip, so next time, I know where to go, what to take and what shots I missed. If you get a chance to visit this aquarium, don't pass.

This is SO on my list of places to check out! I've been itching to get there. The jellyfish shot is beautiful! Was it crowded?? That's the only thing I'm afraid of, would hate to miss shots because of all the people that actually want to see the fish. :-)

| Yes, it is crowded. You can get the shots if you are patient and observant. Some places the crowds move in waves, so in between, you will have a spot to yourself. The sea dragons are one spot like that. You may want to view your first trip as your scouting one, lower your expectations so you get the flavor of the place, the layout, what you really want to shoot, what you are able to shoot and where you find your efforts failed in the first attempt. The lighting is challenging, the water is not always pristine, the fish are often moving quickly so its a good spot to stretch your skills and gear. |

| I like your picture of the rays. Very interesting shot. I've not see one like it before. |

| I live really near there but I haven't had a chance to go. My dad has though and he sais it is really neat. I like your shots, it makes me want to go there even more. |

I tried to go to the aquarium today but was disappointed when I went online to get tickets, they are sold out for the weekend. Better plan a few weeks ahead if you want to get in on the weekend.
Great pictures, love the one of the stingrays.
