These colors may not be my favourites, even mixed, but they look great in this simple and beautiful composition.

NyMosy [2010-09-16 23:00:02 +0000 UTC]

Cool minimalist approach! The ripples remind me of speakers, and the trailing lines remind me of a music sheet, which adds a whole new sensory element to the piece. I also like how their fins and the edges of their bodies are translucent. That's a very cool fishy element. Nice job on their patterns and good luck in the contest!
