Thanks everyone! It's a Canon 35 mm 1.4, lots of fun up close.

I like the enclosure, could you back up some and get the whole thing.

I need a couple enclosure examples.

I only took a couple of my Tank from further back. This lens isn't quite as amazing from afar, so the picture is just of the top. The bottom is just a box filled with two feet of dirt, so not that great to look at anyway I suppose. I can get a more complete picture of the whole thing from top to bottom if you like. Anyway, as enclosure pictures always start a flurry, let me say that I know the top is a little high. As you can see it was based on the size of the window, and built around that. I know that the UVB light is probably too high for the monitor to get any benefit out of it whatsoever. I am looking at getting a Mega Ray for it, but they are backordered right now.

I call it "The Tank" now since doing an upgrade a couple weeks back. After our discussion about sealing an enclosure vs humidifying it, I decided to take your advice and seal it up. I patched the hole I had for the humidifier, and then gave it a new paint job. Its olive green now, and given the size, the name Tank seemed appropriate. Here she is, with Steve inside:

And just a little further back to give it some perspective. This is me working away in the office:

How deep is your substrate? (I know you've answered this before, I just can't recall.)
