Description
Done in 2 New Jersey Locations, Double Trouble State Park, Pine Barrens southern Ocean County & Deep Cut Park, Middletown NJ, Monmouth County then fused/ merged (in post processing ) Koi Fish Dream , My interpretation of Koi fish in a dream like scene / state some facts about them , What does koi mean?
Koi is simply the Japanese word for "carp. What are known as koi in English are referred to more
specifically as nishikigoi in Japanese (literally meaning "brocaded carp"). In Japanese, "koi" sounds like
another word that means "affection" or "love"; koi are therefore symbols of love and friendship in Japan. Also this An average koi lives around 30 years, but one can live for centuries. One famous koi named "Hanako"
was owned by several individuals and was reportedly 226 years old upon her death(c. 1751 July 7,
1977).
