Based on a comment in my other post, tried to get a similar effect with a subject in front. Not the same but turned out nice. Getting fish to cooperate is HARD.

Damn that's a pretty shot

It gives me that feeling of peace that always washes over me when looking at the sun like that

Getting critters to cooperate for pictures is hard AF, anyone who tells you otherwise must be a Disney princess in disguise

It's like they know when you get out the camera

My theory for cats is that they can hear high pitch sounds from auto-focus motors. Nothing to back that up with though. Dunno if fish can hear good either.

Wow nice shot! What camera/setup do you use for underwater shots?

Thanks! I have an old GoPro Hero 4 on a selfie stick. Still works perfectly
