Nice subject
Its a little too green for my taste, green and not much else.
It looks a bit to me like your subject is smiling at you

Finnfly,

That is one spooky looking fish; the eye on the left is the best part for me. The water seems unusual, reflecting an odd sky, perhaps?

Hi there! The water does look very green and quite weird. It was rainy day and water was mixed up cause Hurricane Noels wind did effect water clarity in Keys also ( high winds), maybe that is one reason why water did look like that, but it was very very green and sky was dark.
I think it kind of looks evil...

Finnfly,

A fitting background for Mr. Tarpon. Good work.
