I saw this in the sidebar and thought it was so clever, I had to come in for a closer look. Your lighting is really very good and I like the way you made the fish twist in serpentine fashion. The addition of the extra fish was the perfect touch. The only critique I have of this is the masking. There's that line of light around the bottom of the fish. When I'm masking something, I use two backgrounds, black and white, to make sure I didn't miss anything. I still like it and everything else is great.

Great job, and very clever thinking .. good luck

ty both for your kind words

A major !!
