Your flash worked great through the aquarium wall, Frank. Superb detail and lighting. I like this image a lot.

Really nice shot Frank, the stare of the fish has a lot of impact. Given that you shot through glass, it still looks pretty crisp. And the colors look fine too, sometimes glass can add a greenish cast, but your colors look good here.

MG would be jealous of this one 😀
