Description
This photograph was taken while touring the Shedd Aquarium in Chicago. It was taken in the Wild Reef section and represents one of my first underwater photographs. It has a texture added to enhance the artistic effect. According to Wikipedia, "Shedd Aquarium was the first inland aquarium with a permanent saltwater fish collection. It is surrounded by Museum Campus Chicago, which it shares with the Adler Planetarium and the Field Museum of Natural History. The aquarium has 2 million annual visitors; it was the most visited aquarium in the U.S. in 2005, and in 2007, it surpassed the Field Museum as the most popular cultural attraction in Chicago.[8] It contains 1500 species including fish, marine mammals, birds, snakes, amphibians, and insects.[9] The aquarium received awards for best exhibit from the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA) for Seahorse Symphony in 1999, Amazon Rising in 2001, and Wild Reef in 2004."
