Practise shots round 3: African arowana- Heterotis Niloticus

[xander]

first round of attatchments are those i found to be passable, second round are those i planned for, and left at the original size. or, in the words of gerry..."CLICK DA PICS"

first round:
mostly shots that i 'got lucky' on...quite the belly on this guy








second round:
had to switch to manual focus as i don't have the *ka-ching* to get real snazzy equipment. not the best detail to the shots, but the best i could get by trial & error with the 75-300mm lense i especially liked how in the third shot you can see the water entering the bonytongue's mouth as 'he' breaches
