Taken on my son's first birthday, on a trip round the Birmingham Sea Life centre. Macro lens at 90mm, and lots of experimentation with the direction of the flash to get the exposure right. Oh and a bit of patience to wait for the subject to smile nicely!
Levels, cropped, few blemishes cloned out and saved for DPC.

wow! this is one of those images that is really easy to underappreciate--until you try to do it yourself! great work here, all the way around. i hope this isn't being overlooked in this huge challenge, and that it is getting the attention it deserves. good luck here, and in the challenges yet to come!
Very pretty - I like the colours - tank shots like these aren't easy and you've done well! Even better if this isnt a tank shot (Im just playing the odds :P).
