Never would have thought to insert something into it! These fish, bunker, as they are called, are used as bait fish around here. No one eats them. I had never seen them anywhere other than along the coast stirring up a feeding frenzy.

I had no idea how large they were so I just guessed the size of the man. They looked like they were in an eating frenzy. Anything goes on these challenges.

Actually where I saw these, about a mile up river from entering the sound, they never broke the surface. Just thousands upon thousands of them, swarming around in lazy circulation. They are around 10" in length.

Thats interesting Kenie. I see a layer of plantings among the stone slabs in there. It looks really cool especially along the left side, and you coaxed quit a bit out of the fishes.

I didn't think you had enough fish so I added some more. 
There's always room for more! I found that it responded to color changes well, as you did.

Norwalk River Meets Long Island Sound: my view
You have given me some ideas Matt. I like grainy. I could see your version with both a dark and a light vignette. Given that it had such a confined histogram to begin with, my first response was to work with it in b/w and only later came back to it in color.

As you mentioned you did pick something different to work on. I had to think about this one before I started to work on it

Are they on the way to the land of OZ? They appear to be spiraling upwards, and putting them in the sky makes perfect sense to me.
