Thanks! I’m shooting on a Sony A7RIII with a 90mm macro lens using the avast porthole. Color correction/white balance in Lightroom.

Hoping to get an orange filter soon so I can do my torches some justice

Camera works well
The old fart on the hill requests labeled pics
And proper orientation is a bonus
Thanks in advance

Added the names. Honestly good reminder, it helps me keep track of these things. Some orientations are kinda weird because of how they are positioned in tank lol

Should add, this camera is completely waterproof. This helps me get some angles that would be difficult or impossible with my Mirrorless + porthole combo (would require the camera body to be submerged).

Those Acros looking good!
