  Very good color, exposure. I wondered if there's any significance to these April Fish being upside down?

  Intersting bit of trivia there Dado.. This gives me the willies.. Don't get me wrong.. Great candid image.. I just don't like dead fish.. I bet taking a still shot of live ones would of been alot harder..lol

  This is one strange image, Dado, but so well taken as usual. I love it when you, Mata and Laurence give us a little insight into your world over there. Pesce D'Aprile! to you also.

  Awesome image Dado ! Poisson d'avril to you too ! In France, the fish is part of the April's fool thing too...We usually cut out little paper fishes, write a joke on it and tape it to a friend without him knowing it...Is it the same in Italy ?

  Awesome image, Dado. Very eerie.

In U.S.A. we have a custom on April 1st. We like to tell people stories that sound so real, then when they really seem to believe it we say "April Fools". LOL.
