Congrats! you won my fill the frame with colour photo challenge with this image! Absolutely amazing shot, love the variety of colour in the Koi and flawed by the amount of activity - no matter where you look there is something to interesting to draw the eye! Great shot and truly fascinating capture! Well done!

Location
This was taken at a man-made lake in Solenad Nuvali, Sta. Rosa, Laguna, Phillippines.Time
It was afternoon when I took this photo.Lighting
Nothing fancy about the lighting, ambient light was used.Equipment
I used my Canon 500D with an EF 50mm f/1.8 lens.Inspiration
One of the attraction in the park is that you can feed the kois. There were about a thousand of them all in all living in the lake so by the moment that you'll be throwing the fish food at them they'll be swarming at you. Seeing the scene made me take the shot.Editing
I did process the photo by enhancing the color to make it pop. Some sharpening was also applied.In my camera bag
Canon 5D mk 2 EF 17-40mm f/4.0L EF 50mm f/1.8 Speedlite 430 EXFeedback
Always look for something interesting. It is a good way to start to make your composition before taking the shot.
