Showa progress
I'm pleased, so this out of focus photo of my favorite showa tosai will end up on 3 boards. But starting here as an earlier photo is part of my banner add which shows above every now and then.

Now around 25cm and going just the way I was hoping.



If anyone can put this photo into focus, I'd be chuffed.
Maurice.

Nice!

This could be the characteristics of your showa, but the sumi and shiroji look so well developed for a koi so small.

By the way I got to met Oyama who is here on a visit to the states. Very nice man and even better SHowa that he has produced. He told us some of Sakai Hiroshima's secrets to their water...
