Instagram Worthy Member Pictures

HI All - I've been working on the FishLore instagram account (I know, welcome to the 21st century mike) and have been going through threads looking for "good" pictures of member's tanks and fish and have been sharing/featuring them on instagram. I'm making this thread and sticky-ing it so I can easily find new pics from our members to share on instagram.

So, if you have a "good" pic you would like me to feature on instagram, post it in this thread. I'll watch this thread daily so I get notifications when someone makes a new post. Please note I am only looking for really good pics of tanks and/or fish (no blurry pics or dirty tanks) so please don't be offended if yours doesn't get selected. Planted, ponds, fresh and saltwater, anything is acceptable. I'll put your member name on the instagram post to credit you.

Here is the official FL instagram account page: FishLore.com (@fishloreforum) • Instagram photos and videos

Thanks!
Mike

I tried to get a good picture of my goldfish, but they were very hyper. So here’s the bettas!

 

And a guppy I bred... Forgot to attach it!

I'm no photographer, but this is another that I love anyway. How about a ' Nice haul' pic for the Instagram page Mike?

 

Thunder_o_b , this thread is really calling out to you!

 

So Mike will this thread be kept open for future submissions or is this just to get the ball rolling? Edit: I just answered my own question. Sorry for the momentary brain fart.

On to my salty pics; not as many because I just got started!










And one more to show off my Fishlore swag

I'm no photographer either I'm just a hobbyist in love with the hobby still coming off of humble beginnings. But I didn't really see any snail pics. These are some of my favorite.

 

I don’t think these are Instagram worthy but thought I’d put them on

I absolutely love keeping terracottas in my tank!

I got it off a Fishlore merchandise link that was floating around here awhile ago. Someone said you ran that project ? Think you need to consider getting one, fearless leader

I apologize about the blurriness

The photos were taken on my mobile device, and appeared clear to me. However I checked how they appeared on my laptop and I see what you are talking about. My bad.

 

Thunder_o_b , this thread is really calling out to you!

New shots, or older ones ok? I have a couple nice older files. I am planing to do a propper photo shoot this weekend. Maybe there will be some that come out ok. l'll get back to you

No worries, I'll see if I can clean them up a tiny bit before posting. Thanks for sharing them!

Either/or. You always take fantastic pics!

Same, my 13MP camera looks so good on the phone but on laptop it looks half as bad. I just used my old ipod yesterday with 5mp camera and I could barely take good photos! So spoiled in technology.

 

Here are some

 

I've already posted some of these to my IG, but it would be super cool if you wanted to post them too! I'd love if you tagged my instagram, which is @maksaqua

 

Either/or. You always take fantastic pics!

Thank you

 

Thanks Mike

Some very nice pics. Makes me want to dust off my cemera and see if I can remember how to use it. And to get a move on and finish rescaping my tank.

 

Just wanted to share a few of my favorites.

 

lots of fishies; how about a froggy? (she's an african dwarf frog, btw)

 

A few of my favorites

 

Oh my gosh AngelTheGypsy ... The pleco eye looks totally fake in that third picture. Like cartoon eyes! Really great pictures Angel, especially the one with the lovely cories looking snowy white on the black sand.

When I get home I want to photo shop the gravel out in favor of a black background or sand. Are you ok with that?
