I’ve been keeping marine reef aquariums for several years now and love to photograph the inhabitants. The colors are unbelievable!

Ah, great time of the year. 
Taken with a Canon T2i and Canon 100mm.
Canon T2i (550D) and Canon 100mm. All hand held shots.
Finally treated myself to a new camera, the T2i (upgrading from an XT), and after waiting for Adorama to stock it again, it arrive last week!
I took it out to an abandoned school in Hall Summit, LA this past weekend and put it to the test… One of the main reasons I went with this Rebel is the ISO range, from 100 to 6400 and expanded to 12800. The noise levels up to 3200 are quite acceptable, so it’s a great camera for hand held low-light photography such as the abandonments I visit. The HD video and all the other features are great too, so I’m really happy with it thus far.
After using the XT with battery grip for so long, the T2i is a little awkward to hold without it’s grip, so I will be making that additional purchase soon.
Hall Summit’s school has been closed since 2001 and is still in relatively good condition. The main buildings are all intact, the playground still has some equipment laying about, but the gymnasium is a little worse for wear since water has damaged the floor and caused much of the wood to buckle up.

All in all it was a good trip and I’m really pleased with the new T2i!
