Sorry these pics arent about aquariums but i think this forum likes all kinds of fotos
Actually these pics wont show you lots of things, you should see them.
With my father we went out to take some pics. My dijital cam is Olympus C-350 and my father doesnt have a dijital one and dont know about his camera but his lenses are great and he took much more better and CLOSER photoes then i took.
The place that i went was really interesting (btw i live in Turkey). We were trying to find a good place to take some pics and we decided to go somewhere thats not crowded. We drove out of the city a bit and there we found a place that there were lots of fabrics around and behind the fabrics there was sea. Then we passed them and there was a umm... river? (dont know what you call them in English, fabrics' dirty water goes to the sea after cleaning by this artificial rivers) actually the water wasnt really clean it was really dirty and was going through the sea :(
Anyway, we went the other side of this river and there was a paradise behind all of this dirty, unhealthy place.
It was like a bog. First animals i saw were dragon flyies, they were all red
It was a very very big area which covered w/ pink, short bushes. The roots of the bushes were in the water. The dept of the water was somewhere 1" and somewhere deeper but not more then probably 10" anywhere. After the pink bushes, far away from us, the sea starts but because of the water we couldnt walk, the water was probably brackish or saltwater. There were hundereds of flamingoes but we couldnt take photos because they were very very far away from us.
Then at the end of the this dirty river we saw a crowd and started to walk to go there, it took about 10-15 mins to walk and it was unbelievable there were maybe 1000s of flamingoes and other birds that i dont know the English names... It was unbelievable that all of these are just behind a group of fabric!!! 8O but the bad think is probably because of pollution or because of the fabrics (they will probably going to put some sand on these pink bushes and build new fabrics on them) all of these birds, bog and plants will die or go away :( ok here are few pics that i took. My father's cam took much more better ones because all the birds were very far away from us and my cam couldnt really make them closer.

Ok ok i know i wrote too much and sorry for my English i think i made some grammer mistakes
