This fish will probably be identifiable as mine, but it is the best picture I have taken this month.
The image is taken with my 50mm macro as opposed to my new 180mm since it was better suited for this tricky hand-held shot. I have lit the scene with a single external studio flash and placed some black card behind the aquarium.
The image has been rotated 90 degrees.
