Fish Lips and The Mermaid

photo 225
One fish, two fish. Red fish, blue fish.

I posterized Onefish, who we won at the Fireman's Carnival in July.

Winning goldfish by tossing ping pong balls into small round glass goldfish bowls is a tradition at the local Fireman's carnivals. The carnival is a big fund raiser that has been going on since before I was born. One of my few childhood memories that continues in its original form.

One fish and her acrylic tank have been traveling back and forth between Pennsylvania and Virginia as we spent time with my Dad. She has adjusted nicely for a fish who has traveled over 500 miles in the past month.

She is quite a flirty girl and is missing "Dad" who was gleefully over feeding her.

My reflection along with the color changing lights makes it look like she is sharing her tank with a translucent mermaid.
