It is difficult to observe such a rare fish as omul in its natural habitat, because the intensive fishing of this fish has significantly reduced its reserves, and now, to maintain the herd, experts resort to its artificial breeding. That is why the photographer, having entered the water on a fine cloudy day at the end of autumn, was extremely surprised by what opened to his eyes. Of course, he took out his camera and took some pictures about the life of omul, glad that he managed to catch a whole school of these fish.
