Hi Bonsaikoi,
This looks very interesting, and if I were in the area I would probably attend...but I gotta ask...serious question now... How do you photograph a fish? Is it an ariel view from above? I have photographed fish that I have fished out of a lake or at the shore, but I wouldnt think you would want to handle and stress a ornamental fish like koi? |

With any fish it is stressful. Koi are viewed from the top so you take it from the top in a tub. Not directly above but very close.. Here is an example... By the way the people who handle koi do it for a living and with 30+ inch fish they can produce power but the handlers seem to do with with Grace.. By the way I am the Photo guy for this show as well...
Joe

Beautiful fish Joe.
I have always admired koi. How hearty are they? I have dreamed of a Japanese garden with a koi pond but I was afraid they wouldnt be able to survive a New England Winter. Can they be kept in aquariums indoors during the winter? Moe |

Moe, koi like bonsai are only as hearty as its keepers knowledge. SO the more you know the better off you and the koi are. Koi does best in a pond. But they are colored carp. Your climates are harsh. So a greenhouse or temp pond in the garage will do. I would not reccommend keeping them in aquariums as its not really enough room. I know people have kept them in an aquarium but its really not the best enviroment. Joe
