This is the last set for my presentation on this AJRS Revisited Threads. I hope that this look behind the scene will give you some better idea of what goes on in the All Japan Ranchu Show every year. Early November 2005, I plan to be participating in this wonderful ranchu spectacle once again, and from just reposting these pictures again, I cannot stop myself from getting excited about the prospect. I have a better camera this time, and cannot wait to take some lovely pictures such as those that Geert has shown to us. Back to the Show, this last set will be the last part of the judging for the Show.
The first picture is of the judges in the final step of ranking the fish in each classes.
The second picture is of the holding ponds of the Show fish in each classifications awaiting the final ranking from all the panels of judges and finally the presentation to the public.
The third picture is once again the picture of the public mobbing each of the winners as they are presented. Quite a stir!
The fourth picture is once again of the fish that did not make the grade to the Show. But please look at the size of all of them. If only I could just take just some of them home with me.
The last picture is the group picture of all the participants for publication and future prosperity.
Hope that you like the pictures and hope that it will help many people to understand the dedications and efforts that many people go through for this lovely ranchu hobby. Sawasdee krap and keep up the good work every one. See you at the Show at the end of the year. Work hard and you shall be delivered. Peace.
