Really nice colour and koi face. Had I voted and realized/suspected and researched that the koi is sacred, this would have had my high vote.

Since all my photo equipment was stolen and I am camera-less, I will spend time now voting...

An interesting interpretation of the challenge, as koi are indeed the national fish of Japan and considered sacred by many who grow them. Fun factoid - the Japanese castle of old often sported koi tail decorations on the roofs - thougth to help prevent the outbreak of fire. As a photo, it looks a little grainy, though his face is quite nicely in focus. 6.
