Anyone remember that little ditty from Saturday morning cartoons? I hope you like the portrait of a fish affectionally named 'Loachy.' Isn't that a face you just wanna smooch? Please view full size (click) for full smooch potential. Have a great HUMP Day everyone! -----

hello ! nice compo ! i like the way you've treated it.. Just one thing : why the sharpness is not on its eye ?
LudyMelltSekher
Beautiful Photography. Excellent!! Congratulations!!

Tiny moving subject Oliver...tough to capture. I got the best focus on the eye that I could. Be sure to zoom in, the eye is in pretty good focus I thought. Burpee, it is a Weather Loach...a bottom feeder from my tank at home.

Wow! An alien! It's a real danger! :)

That's an excellent macro of a little fish that we call "Loche" . Excellent light on it's face , that's really good work .............

Zooming in does bring out the detail..great colors on this little fellow..

Fantastic shot Kort - I love those bottom feeders, we have a couple in our tank but they are dull grey/black ones, nothing so beautifully coloured as this little darling! Congratulations also on keeping your tank so clean - you can't even notice that this has been taken through glass (unless of course you have an underwater camera!!! LOL!) Excellent capture. xx
elmurray
I bet he's a great kisser!!! Great capture!

Amazing... so strange... like it so very much !

Ya, someone go smooch that thing, blech... The focus (although a tad off) is pretty good. Its the moment that makes a photograph. Not so much the quality.

Really cool shot! I used to love my Kuhli Loaches and Clown Loaches, both of which looked like colorful miniature sea snakes. (Long long time ago had 30 fish tanks in a 1 bedroom apmt... plus a zoo of other critters...) You really stretched with this one! =)
goodoleboy
I never watched Saturday morning cartoons. I was too old by then for that pastime. In any event, fantastic colors and lighting in this it-came-from-beneath-the-sea macro! A ruthless predator.....Captain Nemo, beware!!!
nattarious
I agree... Viewing this shot in full view is the best to get everything out of it! Very well done on the compo and pov! Also the focus rocks buddy.. Thank you and have a nice day/night JOE
babuci

CavalierLady

I thought it was Cthulhu riding again ! I think I will pass on the "smooch" and just say is your camera waterproof or do you have a very clean fish-tank ? Kool macro, BTW watch out the Russian Mafia is here stealing artworks and I should know... http://66.249.93.104/translate_c?hl=it&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&langpair=ru%7Cen&u=http://www.artfile.ru/oboi/b/i.php%3Fi%3Da%257C243116&prev=/language_tools BEWARE & ~Cheers~ :o(

This is a smoochable cat...all cats are smoochable unless they intend to eat you for dinner. Ocean or freshwater catfish? I suspect saltwater. Neat shot!
jocko500
