I took on the challenge of taking a picture of a fish in a tank. My older son has a very small tank with a Siamese fighting fish in it. I ended up with this shot which turns the fish into dayglow blue. I love what it does to the texture of the fish's dorsal fin.

Today, I took a picture of my fish. Well, to be honest, I took about twenty pictures of my fish. Fish move. Fast. Add the reflective qualities of aquarium glass, and it makes for a difficult picture taking situation.

I have a fifty-five gallon tank. Gourami, a plecostomus, and a couple of red tail "sharks" inhabit the tank.
