Check out Planted Aquarium Photography with a Point and Shoot Camera.

This article will show you some tips on how to capture your layouts with a photograph that conveys our hard work, creativity, and skills.

This article is also featured in the June issue of Aquascaping World Magazine.

I hope you find it helpful!!

I finally got around to writing my comments on the ADA cube gardens. There are a lot of opinions out there on whether ADA’s products are worth the money that you pay for them. In the ADA Cube Garden Review, we will look at how the ADA Cube Garden Stacks up.

great article. i just discovered the white balance a week ago or so. it makes my pearling riccia look better, as the bubbles are white, not yellow.

I added my latest layout "Hill of Skull" to the Gallery. This one turned out creepy, thus the name. It is a twisted field of simplicity and tension.

Very nice site Jason

I particularly like the HC and hairgrass growing in Riccia idea. I might make myself an Iwagumi in a shallow dish, using that idea for the planting

Here is my writeup on the 2008 Aquatic Gardeners Association Convention. Planted aquarium enthusiasts came from around the world to attend the convention. Here is a brief account of the amazing weekend.

Oh, that's a good looking website with beautiful photos and lots of fun information. Keep up the good work. *bookmarks the website*

There's something odd with the layout with my Firefox 3.0.5 (Ubuntu, resolution 1280x1024), here's the screenshot. Doesn't bother me that much, but I thought I should mention it in case it's something you want to fix.

Great Job Jason, you have a gift as a graphic artist, not to mention your skills as a hobbyist.

Kirsten Eidsmoe - ADA Aquajournal #159 - Aquascaper in Focus

The 2008 AGA Convention in Atlanta, Georgia was a whirlwind of an event. Of all the stories I have told from that weekend, the one of Kirsten Eidsmoe is one of my favorites.

Houston Plant Fest 2009

In April, 2009 NASH (Nature Aquarium Society of Houston) arranged a collection trip to San Marcos River, San Marcos, Texas. The weekend was filled with inspiration, food, and great company!
