[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Taken at the Texas Freshwater Fish Hatchery in Athens TX. These catfish live in a beautiful tank on the Hatchery grounds, where visitors can feed them by hand. They leap up out of the water for the food. Some are extremely large, at least to me. Many were longer than my arm....but none compared to the world record catfish currently living at the Hatchery, which weighs 121.8 pounds and was caught at Lake Texoma last January. That's a lot of catfish!

Very interesting point of view Laurie. They seem sing a song at "l'unisson". Thanks for sharing picture and note.

omg, that are some fish!
nice pov, and compo is good to, but there isn't much you could have changed about the compo i guess ;o)
good colours and it's very funny all the fishes mouths are open!!
another title could have been : who's the odd one out..

sorry out of points, give two tomorow :o)

Now, that's an interesting view. A completely different angle and even the colors look special. A nicely different shot - and good note.

This is an interesting angle. I like the image, and it has good sharpness and excellent DOF.

Thanks for posting
