Is there a way to deal with reflection?

Hi sorry to disturb you all. I was wondering if there is a way to deal with reflection from water? I took a photo of this fish with my canon powershot.

1) Circular Polariser may help alittle.

2) Alternatively, you can try to lower your angle of the shot to minimise the amount of reflection.

3) Photoshop.

Above are just some methods.

CPL or shoot directly perpendicular...

A circular polarizer is the best bet. Just observe the properties of light.

if the pond is lighted, shoot at night

Shoot the fish out of the water. Your best bet. ^^"v

Use a polarizer filter. It helps a lot.

you can also choose a part of the pond without the reflection

but in this case, a water proof camera would be ideal
imagine a face to face shot ...

Seems like I've got to do some reading up on the circular polarizer. thanks for the advice!

CPL! Or bring your camera into the water and shoot the fish. (remember to put your camera in a underwater enclosure)
