He makes an interesting subject and I like how you captured the colours and detail on both the fish and water so well. Very nicely done, Yves.

Thanks Heather. He look big but this is a small fish (8 inches). To the naked eye bright colours are barely visible ( he blends perfectly with the ground under to avoid being catch by raptors.

Beautiful colour and intersting capture Yves. Couldn’t have been easy with the reflections.

Thanks Debra. Of course a stand still water is a must, no reflection on the water too and not more than 2 inches of water over the fich.

Very cool pattern on the fish, and thanks for saying how the shot was made.

Thank you Jane

Description
The capture is not done with an underwater camera. The fish swims in very shallow water near the shore. I am using my usual 400mm. A bit of light correction on the PC makes the trick.
