I like these. The first one shows nicely how the fish blends into its
surroundings. I like the effect of the second one, making it look
like the fish is part of the surrounding scenery.

Poor focus, poor exposure, poor white balance, poor composition.

Out of focus, poorly composed. Human bodies sticking out of the lion-fish's
head and fins. Corner of the tank makes the fish look like it is an
artificial-mount stuck on a display rod. About as attractive as a candle on
a wall sticking out of someone's head. Typical snapshooter's mistakes made
by any 6 year old with a camera in their hands. Do you people know nothing
about paying attention to details?

Due to the two vastly different light sources the lion-fish in the tank
would have had to been shot independently of the mall scene, then blended.
Or use advanced masking techniques in an attempt to repair both from one
shot.

What are you people? Rejects from Fickr's every-photo-is-fantastic
brain-dead-fan clubs?

What do you know? The P&S troll knows about as much about fish as he
does about photography.

What do you know? Read the comments on that video. He knows more than you
can even hope to know one day.

You stupid pissant piece of pussyfied stentching fantasy, I was talking
about in my aquarium, asshole!

Do us all a favor and check yourself into a resting spot on a train track
and stop producing CO2 for Al Gore's sake, OK?

You illiterate sack-o-shit, that commenter was just as full of crap as you
are about photography and ichthyology.

FYI: My "Mister Tee" has been doing well on goldfish for over four and a
half years now.

Moron.
