fish with flower?


The orange roughy has a flower. In real life the orange is more visible, but the photo helps me know I need more contrast. Lucky for me, flowers are all sorts of variable. I've started the 2nd flower using a more linear technique so there's a good chance flower one will be sacrificed to the anal retentive part of the gnat brain.

...for those of you my in imaginary vast and intelligent audience that are better adjusted, "gnat brain" is that which keeps me from doing one task for more than a few minutes. I'm pretty sure it's what real people refer to as attention deficit blah blah blah, and most beaders refer to as 'oooh look sparklies".

Oh by the way, I watch way too much t.v. I admit it. I can blame it on living in small town Alaska before cable. Here in the vast north we have state wide t.v. that feeds random t.v. (some of it eduational) to the far reaches of nowhere. Most of us have cable or satellite now but...(gnat brain, come back!) Annny way the point is on t.v. right now is "Jon and Kate plus 8" on TLC. I am so not a kid person, but this couple blows me away. They have 8 kids courtesy of fertility treatments...and they have a reality t.v. crew in their house. The woman is seriously picky and the guy is pretty laid back, they are honest and they are doing a dang good job of raising this horde that is nearly a baseball team. (like I said I watch too much t.v!)
