Motion Blur and Low Light at a Fish Farm

A cobia at a fish farm
This image was taken earlier this week during a visit to a new fish farm that has started operation just down the street from where I live. The conditions were challenging – low light, reflection off the water’s surface, and a fast moving fish. Interesting resulting effect.
