Out of focus background is ok (depth of field limits) as long as subject is in focus. 4) Fish blurry by movement should be avoided. 5) Framing should include the whole fish in a natural pose. To cut-off the rear of fish detracts from overall picture balance. 6) Tank should be clean (algae, watermarks, etc.), specially the glass you are photographing through. 7) Camera lens should be clean. 8) Photo quality should be good. Observe how whole picture is composed, should be in harmony and pleasant to the observers eyes. 9) Light balance should be natural, not overtly blue or red. 10) Flash and other reflections should be avoided.

Zygotes Posts: 1 Group: Members Member #7,487 Joined: January 26, 2008	Hi fellow flowerhornies! All the fishes look very good and shown very much improvements generally. They show nice coloration and better, thicker, and broader body shapes. I especially like the head development and it goes to show that the hobbyists have really come a long way in terms of fish care. Congrats! We hope that the forumers will continue to upgrade their flowerhorn fish keeping knowledge so that our hobby can move to the next higher level. In future competitions, we hope to see more fishes and more participation and if this is good, we hope to make it a quarterly event here. Do give your fullest support and feedback, so that everyone in this hobby can benefit from our efforts. Cheers and hopefully we can name the winner of this round's competition very soon! For more info on feeding your flowerhorn, check out the specially prepared reports oh flowerhorn food here. Best regards and Happy Flowerhorning! Al Vin FlowerFish.com GrandSumo.com
