Original – The Ruffe is a freshwater fish found in Europe. It has also been introduced to North America.
Reason
Understated, but still an excellent picture. Technically very strong, especially for an underwater photograph. This, I believe, would only be our second freshwater fish; the image is far stronger than the other, which was promoted over six years ago.

OK, seems someone renamed it on Commons and File:Kiisk.jpg is now a redirect over there; don't think I've seen a file redirect like that before. I've changed the file use in the article. I guess this is why we wait a week. --jjron (talk) 08:29, 7 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

As I said. The problem was the redirect didn't show on the WP image page though, as it was happening on Commons. Interesting. Anyway, I've fixed it. --jjron (talk) 12:22, 7 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
