You did well!!! Congrats!!!
It's really impossible to judge from a single pic. My picks were quite different from Peter's in some of the classes.

Yes, you can't judge a fish from a picture..... What if there is damage hidden? Plus Swimming motion is a very important part. If it can swim right, there are conformation problems....... Pic shows are nothing more than a little fun activity......

Dan in some ways I agree but I have to say that the fish that won the higher awards are consistant with the real time shows I have been in. The Longfin that won reserve champion has won two champions already at other shows.With what the judges had to work with they did a great job.This was a way for people who are all over the world to compete and have a good time.

This was not a knock againist your fine Veils, just speaking in general......

Yes, I am not a big fan of picture shows, I guess I am old school..

[George Ludrosky]

I especially like the 2nd place mature ryukin/fantail

Thanks George It has become one of my favs. Baye really liked it last year at the show I cant wait to see it mature more. The pic doesnt give it any justice.
