Description At the Brooklyn Botanical gardens I took a lot of pictures of this fish. It constantly thought that I was going to give it food, and was really insulted when it realized that I was only tricking it. It looked really dissapointed - I felt really bad, but this shot came out nicely with the swirl of water as an unexpected surprise.
