Povestea pe larg:
A Giant Goldfish is the hot viral photo du jour. However, the “giant gold fish” is nothing more than a giant 30 pound koi carp, which was caught in the south of France by Raphael Biagini several months ago. Before you get worried, Biagini was only fishing for sport and threw the big huge gold fish back into the water.
Some have looked at the photo and called it just another photoshop hoax, but marine experts say that a fish that size and color IS possible. In fact, the record koi weighed 90 pounds.
Still yet, a UK Daily Mail article is what started the buzz this time around. People are quick to point out that the man is holding the fish in a way you would hold something that weighed only a couple pounds. Furthermore, people say that the fish looks like it weighs more than 30 pounds itself.
So whether or not the giant goldfish picture is legit or not, it made us crack a smile. With all the things going on today that are quite depressing, such as the unemployment rate spike and the Boulder/Detroit fires – sometimes it’s better to look at things like a giant goldfish and crack a smile. So what do you think? Is it real or fake?
E clar ca omul tine pestele in stilul consacrat de "fotografii impingatori"
