Did I read right? This is a photograph photoshopped to resemble Sumi-e?

Yep, these are photographs. I'm sure there are tutorials for sumi-e on the net? Not sure as I have not done it before

These are beautiful manips (esp. #2,) however, they are Fantail Goldfish, not Koi. Koi do not have double tails or an egg-shaped body, as well as other distinctive traits.
This is a koi, which can get up to 36" long (rarely): [link]
This is a fantail goldfish (specifically a Ryukin in this case,) which can get up to maybe 8" long (rarely): [link]
#2 are possibly Tosakin, #1 is a Moor, and "This is not a Goldfish" looks like another Fantail Goldfish, as well.
Hope that helps!

Yes, I am aware they are goldfish- no.1 was a panda moor and the other two are fantails. I just used the title 'koi' as it is more reminiscent of eastern art than the term 'goldfish'.
