It's a fantastic aquarium - one of the best. Be sure to visit if you're ever in the area. Klaus: Thanks! Heidi: There wasn't much light at all in most of the rooms at the aquarium. I set my camera to its highest ISO rating for most of the time, and I broght 2 lenses that have very wide apertures (a 50mm f/1.4 & 28mm f/1.8 if you care), and even still my keeper rate wasn't all that high. Flash poses 2 problems in this type of environment: 1) some creatures are very light-sensitive, and can be harmed by sudden bursts of light (eg. octopuses) and 2) unless you have the flash totally off-camera, it's likely to create a tremendous glare off of the tank walls. The beautiful jellyfish exhibit is closing in a couple of weeks, and being replaced by a seahorse exhibit, which should be great too.
