Good job Joel. Just missed the top 20. At this rate, you'll have a ribbon before long.

I like this good focus and great colors with the black! Hope this one makes in the top 3!

I like the bold colors. Nice sharp image.

Maybe I would have given this 10, but the second fish from the left has too much black on it so it leaves an unpleasant 'gap' in the image. Still really very good!

Excellent Photo. I wondered if 1 less fish (2nd from the front) might have made it even nicer

The colors are really great against the dark background. I also like that the fish go diagonally across the frame, and not horizontally. Good job

nice mirror effect.....

nice colors, fine reflections. I'd crop the black on the top - the fishies are swallowed up by all that space above them. Cropping down draws the eyes in more and them the eye can follow your wonderful line of fish.

What I "see" here is a shoal rather than a pair or even sets of pairs!
Strong colours. Nicely lit to retain dark background. Lacks interest for me.

Good imagination.

beautiful colours, very sharp image, well done.

A couple of spots are hurting you in there and you could crop more off the top.. Otherwise, great shot, good job of lighting it.

Nice colors, completely seamless background- I dig that. I think I would tried for even more of a diagonal, or perhaps cropped more from the top. Just my take though, it works well as it is!

Well lit, interesting colors, fun composition. I like it. The reflections aren't focused which is all that holds this back IMO.

Great colors, great composition. It could have been a little sharper, but this was very good.

Very nice - you have a cool reflection, nice composition, depth of field and also the black is actually black! Congrats on this pic, it should place high! 10

Vibrant colours, perhaps a little cluttered so many colours ! :)

Great idea :-) very cute! One out in front of the others might have been cute. I really like your composition though. good luck! 9
