Trying to copy what I saw another photographer do on TV. I only had one betta so had to photoshop another shot of him to get the duo.

Thanks for all the comments. This was photoshopped so I guess it got disqualified. I only had one beta so I photoshopped its reflection in. Couple comments about the crop, yeah, I don't know why there is all that space on the left, must have been from when I resized the canvas. Oops.
Nice and sharp, good handling of the background... the negative space really brings the subjects out. I really don't like how they are composed in the frame though.
Voted earlier coming back to leave comments. Oh, the situation is not good...two betas together - they look like they are about to raise their gills and get ready to fight. The photo shows us that these two siamese fighting fish (betas) are ready to combat. Unless of course one is a reflection. If so they you did a SPLENDID job is capturing sharp detail on the reflection. I have to commend you for capturing such sharp wonderful detail on these fish for it is not easy to capture a moving object in water with such clarity. Love the colors here too - those red tones on the fins really pop off the black background. These fish really are beautiful to look upon - I see them as the peacocks of the water.
