Maurice, thank you. This is very educational. Even from pictures!

I have one question.
The first picture shows a deeper type beni. In my limited experience, darker beni tends to stay the same color or darken at age 5 or 6. The only expection I have seen is in some Hiroshima bred sanke. In your fish, the second photo shows a lighter color than the first. Almost a red/red beni turning to an orange/orange beni?
Is this the photo/lighting etc.? Or is this a true transformation as we sometimes see in Sakai Hiroshima fish?
