What an engaging photo...It was a nice discovery process on my laptop...at first, all I could see was the heron,and as I scrolled down I saw the intricate ripples on the water and then...I discovered that magnificent Koi....I've never seen such an elegantly colored Koi....the reflections and the ripples between the bird and the fish really make the shot....you might want to tone down the highlights ever so slightly...but that's just personal taste...nice shot!

This to me looks like the beginning of an expensive relationship, as I know Koi are not cheap, especially when you keep buying replacements, to provide dinner to these guys.
