Wonderful image and colors, Steve! #1427103Steve Mescha 6/3/2005 4:22:33 PM
Thanks so much for the compliments, Roger, Carla, Lawrence, Judy, and Ermanno! We have a great Koi pond where I work but they're constantly on the move! I try to photograph them quite often, but rarely get a good shot. This guy is a little ahead of the focus, but I liked his pose. I thought the PS work gave this a "painterly" look :-) #1427970Debra Booth 6/3/2005 5:11:58 PM
I've had that problem the few times I've tried to capture these guys, but this is just a super shot, Steve! Incredible color and wonderful composition! #1428120Marsha S. Smith 6/3/2005 6:27:19 PM
This is just beautiful, Steve. The effect was perfect - he is one gorgeous fishy! And in perfect position! #1428357Bobbie Davis 6/3/2005 6:37:38 PM

Thanks Noel, Kerby and Kathryn! #1432405Jane Summa 6/8/2005 6:58:43 AM
The motion you captured is excellent...he naturally is "ahead of the focus". Super rich colors & excellent shot, Steve. I hope to be seeing this one again as well. :-) #1445205Sharrie Thomas 7/22/2005 7:48:55 PM
