    Good afternoon,

    I have been quite frustrated these days: I had to cancel at the last minute a trip to Mexico with my brothers. Instead of diving, which was the reason we wanted to go there, I am stuck in Lausanne at the office.

    I had to forget all the fishes, sharks and turtles I had dreamed of...But there was a solution to get rid of that moodthat's what I thought.

    So today I took my camera and tried to take some correct pictures of my AT inside my 60l aquarium. I spent 2 hours and still have not been able to catch any fish.
    Worse could not be! So please be indulgent with the following pictures, my fishes are very shy :-)

    Again, another fish (maybe two?)

    Thanks for watching!

    Guillaume

    Beautiful photos, thank you for sharing with us. I hope you will be able to overcome your frustration soon and keep looking forward to the next adventure!

    By the way, my Aquatimer says hi to yours from Maputo, Mozambiquei1269.photobucket.com/albums/jj582/Jeronimocg/L1030780.jpg

    Guillaume, great to see an Aquatimer in it's natural environment!

    Even better to see a Blue, a White and a Yellow AT in their natural environment....or do my eyes and your photos deceive me?

    Thanks for sharing - and get to do the diving trip A.S.A.P.

    Thanks to all of you for your kind words and your support, I appreciate!

    -Mark, I believe your eyes deceive you: the illusion of three ATs is probably due to different filters I used on photoshop: they reinforce the color of the background, and also by the fact I had drawn down the blinds... That may give the impression that I own 3ATs but for the moment I only have the black/yellow dialed version :-)

    Too bad you had to cancel your trip, I hope you will be able to go later and enjoy your holiday. Your aquarium pictures are great and I hope they can give you at least a tiny bit of the holiday feeling.

    Thanks for the very creative shots and take good care of your Aquatimer and fishes.

    Kind regards,

    Clemens
