And I thought photographing mice was difficult!! At least mice hold still once in a while. My Betta refused to hold still. I distracted him a bit with some food, which only lasted a millisecond. His name is Depth Charge.

This picture will no doubt get steam rolled by some gorgeous shot of mountains reflected in a calm lake at sunset. Oh well.

It looks a little hazy in the water. A beautiful fish!

I like your idea, but the colors seem muted and the background pattern distracts.

Well, you've definitely met the challenge. This kind of fish is so beautiful. It's hard shooting through aquarium walls, though and I can see that the image quality suffered a bit from that. Also, there's a bit too much going on with the background design, bubbles, and the green plant stem. Hope you don't mind my imput, because I really am not trying to put your image or you down. You met the challenge, but the image needs some work in my opinion. Good luck and keep on shooting!

I think the colors could use a bump in this one.
