This was at the end of March 2007 at our local annual garden & flower show. With the kind permission of a breeder from Unadilla, New York (I have to dig up his name again) who was displaying them, I was able to handle three very beautiful, willing and curious koi. The yellow cream doitsu was the boldest.
A pleasant little video aquarium I shot back in December 2005, about a month after I got them - and yes, that's Sweet Pea, who's since lost her black lipstick and stockings and is now only orange. (This is their first tank and before their setup became the aesthetic disaster it is today. :)
