Yes, it's blue and yellow, which I guess aren't true complementary colors, but this is the best I had for this week. The noise is due to having to shoot at ISO 800 to stop the action.

from Wikipedia:
On the HSV Colour Wheel, the complement of blue is yellow; that is, a colour corresponding to an equal mixture of red and green light. On a colour wheel based on traditional colour theory (RYB), the complementary colour to blue is considered to be orange (based on the Munsell colour wheel).

So, I guess it depends which color wheel you're looking at.

this shot is very noisy, the fish loos a little out of focus, and the shot is a little to centered for me. plus the fish is yellow, not orange.
