Congrats Hristo, no doubt in my mind some of those shots would win. You always shot fantastic photos of your killies and other fish.
 
Nice to see you sharing your work over here, too, Hristo. :tea:

As always- your pictures (and fish!) are absolutely amazing. :star::star::star::star::star:
 
Wow Hristo, you have to let others have a chance.... You are way up there my friend unless Norbert decides he want to have a go at killies! LOL.

I will concentrate on bigger easier subjects... even plants. LOL.
