[Ligne directrice - Note] Note du photographe
Oceanarium is the largest water tank in the Aquarium of Barcelona. It has over 80 m long transparent tunnel going through it giving a feeling of walking on the sea bed.

Low light and the fact that fish never stop for a pose make aquarium shots difficult. Focal length of 10 mm and ISO 800 helped this time.

You've found an excellent frame here, Kari, with those attractive lines, the depth of the corridor, and of course the pretty waters and attractive fish, well done! Daniel

kari

well taken
marianna

bonjour,
tres belle photo car ce n'est pas facile de prendre avec les glaces sans trop de reflets, et tu as bien réussi et le "spectacle" est joli avec ces poissons, les couleurs sont naturelles et bien vu la réflection du visiteur dans la glace
good shot!
juliette

Terve Kari,
Avoiding the reflections was another issue in such a situation, nice perspective from the Nemo world, the glasses look very clean and so is the image even @ 800 ISO.
Have a nice week end JY

Hi,Kari,
Wow, what interesting Aquarium there is in Barcelona!
Well, but sharks are behind the glass, so...oh, I sigh with relief:))
I like the engineering concept.
TFS
I'm sure, you've had fun there.

Hello Kari,

I envy your walking there! Excellent capture under difficult circumstances and very well usage of wide angle lens that adds all visitors and part of aquarium very cleverly. Wonderful.

Friendly Regards,

Stefano.

Kari, c'est une photo qu'aurait aimée ce précurseur de Jules Verne.
J'aime cet effet balade sous la mer avec les promeneurs sous les requins. Bien vu et bien réalisé.

Brrr, I wouldn't feel very safe in there... In difficult conditions, you managed to get a good shot. It's very clear and sharp.

regards,

Luc.

Fabulous this view under the sea, Great succes ,
Bravo Réal.

i'd love to walk in that tunnel :D

Hi Kari,
I remember well when i was there, a great and very interesting place to spend some hours. Your photo really shows how it is in the tube and the light and exposure is spot on...really good work here.
Brings back some good memories...thanks.
Regards, Henk

Hi Kari,

The Life Aquatic! Fantastic indoor shot from an oceanarium I've never visited. Great feeling of "being there", so thanks to your photo, I don't have to go... :-P)

Excellent result with high ISO, but hey! this is a Canon!... I like the shades, the light and the good timing to catch a shark.

Have a great week-end!

André

Hi Kari..great shot...wonderful exposure and light...great details and sharpness.

Hi Kari.

Really a wonderful work in this photo. You made a great work with the exposure and the composition. Also I think the people add a lot of interest.

Regards from Barcelona.

Hi Kari,

These visitors seems to feel very comfortable between the sharks. In Holland their was a TV-commercial showing a shark that was crushing the glass of the aquarium, telling that it was time to contact your insurance company.

Hi Kari. Wonderful shot. I love the colours of the water. Well composed with a good sense of depth. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers, Paul.

Hi Kari,
Wow... that's awesome! It's been ages since I've visited an aquarium and I guess that at that time they just didn't build such sophisticated tunnels where you could walk as if you were underwater. Your shot perfectly conveys the feeling that the people must have here and I like the way you've frame that arch in the foregound.
Cheers.
Brigitte

This is a very nice composition with great light and colours. I like the look through the blue tunnel of water, well done.
Best wishes,
Achim

Hi Kari.

Next time in the Aquarium I'll take this picture!

Excellent exposure!

Hi Kari,
Very nice to follow the tunnel through the underwater world of the Oceanarium. It's nice to see the people looking up to admire the fish. Great light management too. Thanks for sharing!
Regards,
Lars

Nice shot Kari;

I like how the curved line of the glass seam catches the eye and also makes you feel as though you need to duck down- going further into the shot.
Natural looking colors for an overall good shot.

This reminds me- I have some similar images from the aquarium in Bangkok that turned out quite well. Singapore also has a similar setup (I believe with a moving sidewalk/floor).

All the best!

i always wonder how you feel
when you are looking the water and fishes that their under.
i suppose it must be wonderful,
great shot, nice work! TFS

Hello Kari,

Hello Kari.
What a shot! Beautiful! Very well done with the exposure. Great light and colours. I can't really tell that it's taken with the 10mm lens. There's no lens distortion whatsoever.
Our next place to visit is Barcelona, but yet I don't know when it will take place. Then I will not miss this.
Thanks for sharing.

Regards
Per

Flash would ruin this but the high iso seems to have done the trick Kari. The 10mm gives a huge amount of dof at large apertures. The clarity is very good and could be used on their advertising brochures ;)

Congratulation.
