| I'm guessing all those shrimp are the ones available on the Planet Inverts page, I was checking it out after Johnny posted on the blog about it. I would get some, but I don't have hundreds of dollars to spend on shrimp that, with my luck, would die in a week anyways lol

| I had a look around your site when the links was put up here. First thing I went to was the gallery, I was pretty impressed then. Now I'm even more impressed that you didn't use a tripod to take these. I need to get one of those myself. My Canon S3IS isn't a bad little camera but would be so much better with a good stand.

You have to just rest the camera on a sturdy structure, or hold it with your hand, having your arm propped on something. It takes time to learn about macro photography techniques. Its just practice basically....

| Maybe a monopod would be ideal for you.
