I am seeking advice on photographing fish in the field before releasing
them.
I am a native fish newbie. I have a good bit of experience with other
wildlife, but have only recently gotten hooked on native fish. What I plan
to do is collect local fish (and invertebrates), hold them briefly in some
type of enclosure on site, photograph them, and then release them back into
the place where I collected them.
The photographic enclosure that I am visualizing is some sort of small
glass/plastic container or aquarium that will allow me to isolate a fish and
keep it relatively still while I photograph it. (I prefer not to shoot
photos of a fish out of water in a net or someone's hands.) I haven't been
successful in finding anything about this kind of photography on the
Internet.
I would be grateful for any advice I can get from you folks who have
successfully photographed fish in the field.
Thanks in advance,
Dennis
