Wonderful!
Aha! Excellent haiku in 12 syllables with excellent imagery! Just yesterday, I saw a picture that was "exactly" like this and I was looking at it in admiration. It was at the back of my mind to write about it
I like this haiku with its vivid imagery. L1 and L2 go very well together. L3 is quite a surprising and good revealation. Normally, had I not seen a picture, I would have imagined L3 to be "his net" or something along those lines. This is a good twist of thoughts from L2 to L3. I love the light-heartedness and open-endedness of this haiku. Very good resonance as well. This is a very well captured moment, succint and unique.

Phew! Nice shadow, but I will not bite. Well I can't anyway really, I am just imagining, as I am safe in my tank. Well I say safe. Humans are a little rowdy and they have nearly knocked my tank over a couple of times. Anyway, it is a good poem here.
