Oh no. I suppose there's going to be a "The big one that got away" story to accompany the picture?

Hmm, this is a tough one, without owning a fishtank or an aquatic camera, it's definitly going to be a challenge...

Had to really dig into my old photos to find one that fits the theme ... this was taken ages ago, last year I think, in Sydney Aquarium.

That really is a good shot breeze. I was intending to look up some old photos I took of Shamu at Seaworld quite a few years ago but had serious difficulties locating them. One of these days I need to seriously digitize my old photos.

I would love to digitize old photos - I don't even have *that* many, maybe nearing a thousand, but it still seems like such a daunting task.
And no EXIF data :(

Aurgh! I have a photo I want to put in, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't qualify.

Is it strictly Aquatic life or in the most general way possible?
