This photo is second in a series of koi fish floating in a large pond at night during the rain. I wanted to achieve the effect of fish floating in space that evolved out of the debri falling into the pond. I accentuated the effect of the colors to give this abstact a sense of intergalatic space. I imagined I saw the Eagle Nebula in dark blue, a favorite target for astronomers. This photos are taken from orbiting and earth based observatories. The koi are connected to each other, one an extension of the other as they appear in an unknown galaxy.
