Last week I invited you to dance, this week I encourage you to fish, but with the camera, no hooks. The only hook here is your camera lens. You sign up?
HOW DOES IT WORK? (REMINDER)
Every week I will propose a new challenge , it is a topic that you will have to capture in a photograph and upload it to the Facebook page of the blog, putting in the description the keyword that I will indicate for each topic. The themes will be varied, from portraits to Macro photography, going through landscapes, black and white photography, or babies. The topics will be proposed on Fridays , so that you have the whole weekend to work on them. You will have one week to upload your photograph (one photo per participant), until Thursdayof the following week. On Thursday I will update the article with the photo that has captivated me the most and on Friday I will propose a new topic so that you have the whole weekend to capture your images, and so on…
WEEKLY CHALLENGE 186: AQUARIUS (FROM 11/25/2016 TO 12/1/2016)
In its day, an article with 13 Tips and Tricks to Successfully Photograph an Aquarium was published on the blog . Today I challenge you to put these tips into practice, because even if you read them at the time, if you didn't carry them out, reading them probably wasn't much use for you. To learn you have to practice, this is like two plus two equals four ?
Photographing an aquarium isn't easy if you don't know how, but if it were easy it wouldn't be a challenge, right? And since I am a "piece of bread" I have left you the link to the tricks to pave the way for you. And if you don't have an aquarium at home, surely you have a friend with one or maybe there is an aquarium in your city... It's time to visit it!
Another idea... I'm going to make it easy (do you see how I'm a little piece of bread?), in case none of the previous options is possible: a fish is worth a fish tank, you can go to a store that sells little fish and ask for permission ( You can always thank them for leaving you with one of your photos) or let your imagination run wild, I'm sure you'll come up with something if you put your mind to it ?
As usual, to participate in this week's challenge upload your photo to the Facebook wallfrom the Photographer's Blog: In the description of the photo please mention the keyword “Aquarium Challenge” followed by a title of your choice .
ALTERNATIVE MEANS TO PARTICIPATE
Those of you who are not from Facebook have the following social networks to participate.

Happy photography.
UPDATE
If normally it is difficult for me to choose a photo, when it comes to water and fish the matter is complicated for me. I like all of them, because I love the sea and all the living beings that inhabit it, so for me all the photos and all the work you have done this week seems wonderful to me and all the photographs are worthy of being highlighted, but of course, that's not You can, so I leave you with a small representation of technique, sensitivity and creativity:
And since I have to highlight one and only one I highlight the photograph of Gerardo Olvera (ains… that sometimes it is difficult for you to put a title, ahem ahem… ). It is correctly executed, with a good focus, a nice composition, no shake and good lighting, with how complicated this is in an aquarium or at the bottom of the sea. But what I like the most is the color, that intense blue has me completely hypnotized, it calms me down and gives me immense peace. On the other hand, there is hardly any trace of glass, indeed, I would dare to say that it is an aquarium as big as the ocean itself ? This clue is given to me by the rays of light that fall from the surface onto the coral. Congratulations Gerardo and congratulations to the rest!
