Haha, I mentioned that to Brad and I think he'll let it slide as long as the organism is in the Anthozoa class. :) |
Haha thanks for all the compliments on my pic. I know it's not a true coral, but hey when am I ever going to get to show it off! :biggrin:
BTW, the full high res pic looks way better, can see all the little neon strips in each of it's tentacles, tough to see in a low res pic :) |

Seriously though, let's not have that discussion here. We want pictures ! Feel free to discuss what a "coral" is/means in (coral) discussion thread. For the purposes of looking at pretty pictures, the general definition is good enough :biggrin: That is all, carry on. |
Love almost all of them but-------

Here's a Bonsai that turned out nice. It might look like I post-processed my photos like crazy. But nope, the Kessils put out so much blue and white light, I only have to apply automatic white balance to all of my photos. But I do have to dial down the camera's exposure. Otherwise, the raw photo is way too bright.
To see the raw image straight from my camera, here's the link: https://scontent.xx.fbcdn.net/hphoto...3e&oe=5548507E https://scontent.xx.fbcdn.net/hphoto...4a&oe=554A35A0 |
Sam, which one is your official entry?

A couple of more photos. I think red is the color for Valentine's Day coral and I do love this coral so I'll pick this photo for the official entry. It's an encrusting Goniopora.
https://fbcdn-sphotos-e-a.akamaihd.n...ad8180aa0cf90b This photo was taken only 17 days after I installed the Kessils. This pink Bird's Nest coral was more tan than pink before installing the Kessils. https://scontent.xx.fbcdn.net/hphoto...dc&oe=5594731F |
Even though I'm pretty sure already that I'm going to vote for brandpauley's tube anemone because the photo is SO good; as promised, here's an updated photo of my rainbow brain. I guess I should use this as my entry. It's hard to choose between this one and the yellow Plate in my avatar.
