The Black Moor is also known as the Demenkin. These are my favourite variety of goldfish. The flash brings out some of the vestigal gold in the scales.

It's funny you mention that...I have two of these in a tank of other much larger goldfish and these little guys do chase the others around a lot. It must be characteristic of this variety.

I am not going to lie, this took some time to accomplish...there are a lot of factors involved here.

Does a fish have a mouth? 'Cos I think this one has a very funny looking mouth, which, together with the eye, give him the most surprised expression, it's really funny :) It shows you got an extremely fine piece of work done on this - getting that quality of capture couldn't have been easy. I love the 'old gold' tones he's wearing and the blue sets it off very well, too. The only thing I'd remove is that tiny red dot under the eye, makes it seem a bit creepy. Unless, of course, that's what you were going for. An outstanding capture! :)
