The koi is keeping warm in my basement aquarium. He and my camera were not cooperating. It is a special effects day for photos I guess.
The koi really does have metallic qualities as it is black and gold and the light reflects off of his scales.

The Capitol.....
A shot through a large window creates an unusual yet usual effect. The Iowa State Capital has new gold leaf on its dome.

Teddy's legs are a little short for this big wheel but he still likes sitting on it. These shots were buried in my files and this one... -
Iowa wild rose is the state flower. I keep finding evidence of our hard freeze on different plants as they mature. The freeze messed up...

Very cool images, he looks like he's been dipped in gold.

I like the special effects. I remember how the Coi always seemed to have a metallic look about it.
Larry, that really looks like a solid gold fish!
It looks like he is trapped under ice...neat effects!
I had a koi pond in Salem Oregon - one year the pond froze pretty thick but the koi were fine. I read their metabolism slows way, way down and as long as there is an air vent for off-gassing, they will survive. I gave two big fish away when I moved 10 years ago and one of those fish is still alive! It was HUGE back then.
