Attractive

I used this for one of my attractive photos because the detail and coloring on the fish is beautiful. However, the fact that it was caught and is now being held is, in my opinion, repulsive. The worm on the hook is also visible and I tend to be easily grossed out about worms and fish in general. The photo was taken around high noon on a sunny day so I used photoshop to soften the lighting on the hand and remove the shine on the fish's scales. This was a difficult subject because I wanted to have good compostition, but at the same time I had to hurry so we could get the fish back in the water. I fit the subjects into the bottom two thirds leaving the top third open and the fish's head and worm fall in the right third.
