My Trip On "The Institute of Marine Science " Bang Saen Chonburi Thailand
Last Sunday , I go to travel on Chonburi Thailand and visit "The Institute of Marine Science" . Have many fish here. I will give you some information about this place.
The Institute of Marine Science of the Burapha University
The University operates a modern aquarium with real underwater environment and a marine science museum which opens daily, except Monday, from 8.30a.m.to 4.30 p.m.

I can't add more photos, I afraid it will slow for open page.

=========== More Information about Chonburi Thailand ==============
Chon Buri The Nearest Seaside Retreat
Chonburi, Bangkoks nearest seaside town, is located on the eastern coast of the Gulf of Thailand, only 80 kilometers from Bangkok. The area boasts abundant natural resources, which are highlighted by delightful beaches, local colors, traditions, delicacies and fresh seafood. This is a popular resort among Bangkokians who seek the nearest escape from hectic weekly schedules as Chon Buri has something for everyone. In addition, Chon Buri is the center of the Eastern Seaboard Development Project, with its industrial parks and fishing villages.
Pattaya
Pattaya A Travelers Paradise
Pattaya is nestled along a picturesque bay on the East Coast of the Gulf of Thailand, roughly 170 kilometers southeast of Bangkok. From a fishing village in the 1960's, Pattaya has emerged as the favorite Southeast Asian vacation center. A fascinating escape where tourists, holiday makers and vacationers from around the world unfold an incomparable array of possibilities to unwind during an exotic holiday beach vacation.
Unlike other beach resorts, where natural surroundings are used as magnets to attract tourists, Pattaya makes an all-out attempt to provide the best of everything. Here, everything means everything a tourist can imagine while on holiday: recreation, entertainment, sports, sightseeing and fun. To put it simply, Pattaya is a paradise for everyone, as it has a variety of attractions suitable for all types of visitors. This is the place where you can fill your day, from dusk to dawn, with endless activities, or you may choose to do nothing at all and relax.
Very cool. Thanks for sharing. You travel around a lot in Thailand.
When you photograph fishes through the glass, try putting the lens right on the glass and wrap your hand around it to shield it from reflections. That usually gives much better results.
Is your job travel related or is it "just" your passion to travel a lot?

Thanks for the tip André and i had the same problem when i went to the aquarium, I could take a decent photo because of the light in the aquarium.

No problem. If you have a digital camera, you might want to try to crank up the ISO speed. If you have a Film camera, try ISO-400 film. Try some photos without flash (I think they work best) and some with flash, but make sure the reflection is not finding its way back to the sensor.

i am not tech savy so i dont know what a ISO is , i have a fujifilm finepix s3000. wish i guess isnt the best camera for taking pictures but it is ok for now.

ISO is the light sensitivity of Film. In digital cameras, you essentially change the gain of a PGA (programmable gain amplifier) that sits between your sensor and your ADC (analog to digital converter).
With a higher light sensitivity, you will be able to manage shots in low light environments. The automatic mode of a camera deals with low light by increasing the exposure time while opening up the lens (small f-stop). At some point, you will not be able to hold the camera steady anymore (long exposure) and photos will turn out blurry. When you increase sensitivity by 1-stop (common ISO levels 100,200,400,800,1600 - 1-stop means going from one level to the next) you will be able to decrease the exposure time by 1-stop or decrease the aperture by 1-stop.
The problem with higher ISO levels is an increased noise level. Since the PGA now has to amplify a lower signal level to a higher value, it will also amplify inherent sensor noise (and its own noise). This will look like digital grain.
As a rule of thumb: Shoot at the lowest possible noise level. But instead of compromising a shot by not having enough Depth of Field (f-stop) or blurry images (Esposure Time), it is always preferable to use higher ISO and get a good (but noisy) shot.
This is the place where a digital SLR (single lens reflex) really excels. Since (white) noise is always inverse proportional to the square root of area in semiconductors, you will get less noise with larger sensors.
Many point and shoot cameras can make decent photos with bright light levels, but my Sony P&S at ISO-400 looks worse than my Canon 20D at ISO-3200.
