Apart from the white spots this is the best of the lot, excellent picture 10/10

Nice and crispy fishy. You got him perfectly. Did he kiss your lens?
06/08/2002 10:53:00 AM
Great DOF.

Yours is one of my top picks this week I can't think of anything sibnificant to tell you to add.
06/07/2002 09:35:00 PM
Nice shot!
06/07/2002 07:05:00 AM
Great job getting the focus right!
06/06/2002 10:28:00 PM
yes.
06/06/2002 04:08:00 PM
Yes, you do look very cool.
06/06/2002 12:35:00 PM
good quality/detail
06/06/2002 12:30:00 PM
Yes, the fish looks cool. Focus and DOF is good, too, however, there is dirt on the background (aquarium glass?) and the fish melts a bit into the light-colored gravel. What color is your fish in real life, would that have been better? In any case, I know how difficult aquarium photography is (I never manage to get a single good shot, so high points anyway).

Yes, you do. Out in the world you could clean up those specks at UR. Maybe darken up his spots a little. Great composition, light and focus control.
06/06/2002 04:43:00 AM
This is a really well photographed fish, and those spots look very cool in black and white.
06/05/2002 07:17:00 PM
I think this was a great subject and I like the detail you've captured...wonderfully done.
06/05/2002 09:23:00 AM
i dont care that only the front of this fish is in focus or that there are spots on the aquarium glass. I think this an AWESOME picture.
06/05/2002 09:08:00 AM
Interesting contrast
06/04/2002 07:16:00 PM
This is one of my favorites this week... excellent shot! I see two possible improvement opportunities on this photo... 1) get the dust specs of the glass on the right side of the frame... 2) possibly use a vertical crop to cut the right side of the frame off just to the right of the fish's eye behind the first gill... GREAT SHOT!
06/04/2002 05:12:00 PM
Good contrast on the fish and with the background. good dof. The flecks on the glass are a little distracting. But then again, this might have been beyond your control.
06/04/2002 03:22:00 PM
I didn't like this as a thumbnail. The larger photo is much better. If I wanted to take the time, I would have touched up the litter in the water. It looks like dust or scratches and detracts from the subject. But overall I like it.
06/04/2002 10:38:00 AM
very!!
06/04/2002 06:10:00 AM
Nice close up. Would have liked it a little sharper...
06/03/2002 12:53:00 PM
Yes you do. Quit looking at me! Stop! Aaah!
06/03/2002 12:18:00 PM
Great shot. A top 10.
06/03/2002 11:43:00 AM
Yes, you look cool, and you took a really KOOL b&w. Nice work. Congrats.
06/03/2002 07:12:00 AM
Excellent DOF, great focal point, great composure. Very well done.
06/03/2002 03:53:00 AM
nice. don't like the title though
06/03/2002 02:00:00 AM
I have never seen a fish like this one before. You captured it well. A 9 coming your way!!
06/03/2002 01:43:00 AM
Nice shot,would of got a big 9 off me if not for the flecks on the glass. Hope ya don't mind but I put this photo on PS Elements and cleaned it up(I know you can't do that for this) and it makes a super photo. Clean it up and enter it in another competition and you'll do well. good luck:-)
