Thanks everyone ;-)

Andy, I should have clarified that this was taken at the local park, in their Japanese Gardens. Wish I could keep koi, as they fascinate me. Bev, I was really surprised (and pleased) by how clear the water turned out. I need to go back there several more times, I think. Fremiet, thank you for seeing all that and for putting it into words. High praise, indeed. ;-) --Nancy/JoseNoway

Nancy: I love the subtlety of this image. The rock's reflection one, that alone would convey stillness, is contrasted wonderfully by the obvious motion of the fish. The colors don't whack you yet are strong enough to connect. The depth of the water comes across very well too. Fremiet

Wonderful image, Nancy. I like the almost translucent quality of the reflected rocks, and the beautifully clear water. Bev
