“I started photographing betta fish in the middle of 2015 and continued until now. Betta fish are amazing, you can find them in all sorts of colors, their tails are like dresses, all of them have different patterns, and it looks like every one of them has a different mood and character. Betta fish are strong and easy to handle and feed. Is it difficult to take photos of them? No, you only need to place a flashgun over a small aquarium and a reflector directly underneath to diffuse the light and trigger. Betta fish are not expensive but you can get a priceless picture when you photograph them.”
