Dear Michele!
This is a breath-taking capture!
Fantastic, my friend... I don't know what to say (which as you know, for me is unusual...)
I do hope that a big WOW suffices!
Hugs to You,
Aniko :)

How could you think such a thing?? Give me some credit! First off . . . if I have an issue with someone, they WILL hear about it. And our exchange wasn't even an issue, simply a misunderstanding we both regretted and apologized for. If I have a problem with you I will say so . . . and I expect (and got) the same coutesy from you. You're right . . . I have a lot on my plate now . . . bird biz taxes due, personal taxes, corporate security, issues in our non-profit, blah blah blah . . .
You need bigger guns to scare me off! And you KNOW I value our friendship! I did get the e-mail . . . I completely understand . . . and feel no need to dwell on it. Patience Grasshopper . . . Marlyce can tell you that there are VERY few people more forgiving than I am . . . and there isn't even anything you need to be forgiven for!! Honest questions are ALWAYS fair . . .
So no . . . you're not close to the truth - and don't overestimate your need for a good critique. You've developed good skills in self-analysis . . . and are growing ALL the time! :)
Warm Regards,
Doyle I <~~~~~

Thank YOU Pradnya -- Most of my Maui images had the polorizing lens on FYI ($32.00) but I don't think You could really tell I was using it because it was sooo bright and clear, and HOT --- but I will add an image that does show it- I had forgotten I had it on- and it came out kind of hazy because it was an image in the shade as well...
Photography is not an in-expensive hobbie like I'd first thought ..ha!!!

Thank YOU Doyle for the nice comment...I was begining to think you were'nt going to comment on my images anymore until I got
PS :(( Am I very close to the truth ?
I don't blame you but I miss your critique's...
Ohhh I know you are in high demand and have several projects going on your-self--- Plus I might have scared you after my last comment..but I hope not.
Anyway 'it's always a pleasure to hear your comments...
There are not so many people who take the time to write a good critique .... and I need them !
Again, Thank YOU.

Good eye to spot this guy Michele . . . Carp get very large and, you're right, not good to eat. Fish take on a flavor of what THEY eat . . . carp are scavengers (sucker fish) who take in silt and decay. Yech! They get large because they have plenty to eat in the wild!
The polarizing filter kills the glare . . . would have been perfect. Of course, if you want the surface and sparkles on the water, like a sunset . . . then it's not good. But well done anyway . . . he's quite clear!
Regards,
Doyle I <~~~~~

Dear Michele, if I had the choice,I would prefer fresh salmon too, you could be lucky to have this wonderful fish all day fresh!!! But a carp tastes really good. It’s a specialty by the German people. They eat this fish for Christmas Eve. Called a carp blue, boiled with a butter sauce.
Now I’m hungry….LOL:))
Nice evening,Nicole

Hi Nicole, thank YOu sooo much for viewing and commenting and your kind rate :)) I don't think that carp taste very good---but I've never eaten them just because I live here at the ocean & am sooo spoiled both by the salmon, and all the rest of the fresh sea food.... I could've caught them with a net I think !!!
Huggssss,
Michele~

Hi Joe,
This probably is a carp like You say because they planted them in this lake several years ago to keep the lake clean.....
Oh Noooo .....it was snowing in Canada...ahh sheesh, and Ice on the lake !! You must be really sick of winter (?) Sorry to hear about that :(((.
Best Regards,

Looks like a carp to me. Nice capture Michele. Still it was snowing here this morning and there is still ice on the lake. It won't be around for long though.

Hi Michele, that's a big fish for sure. Do you have a polarizing filter? Great for pond/water shots as you can reduce the surface glare.
