Koi

As I have often found when going out to try and shoot something specific, I don't get what I was after but become pleasantly surprised by what I end up finding. This was the case on an afternoon trip to Selby Gardens over the Christmas Break hoping to get some great orchid macro stuff. I was drawn to their koi pond and dynamic images possible by setting a longer shutter speed. I must have taken 300 or more shots, most quickly lost to aggressive chimping. I love the end results of the few keepers.
