Feeding koi at a temple pond in Japan. You would go grab an old plastic mug from a cute mismatched little collection (very clearly the castoffs from temple members' kitchens) filled with fish food pellets, and leave 500 yen or so in another mug. Then you'd approach the pond and watch the fish go crazy. There were probably over a hundred of them, some colored but mostly these huge grey-brown guys.
Things I like about this photo: the curves--in the water, in the fish mouths; the dark-and-light pattern of the water. Things I don't like: I wish I had gotten some of the colored fish to do this. Also, this took some post-photo cropping/rotating, which I just need to learn to do while I'm taking the picture!
