I'm talking to the fish there with the title! LOL! :-D
I wasn't sure whether to post this as some may think it's a bit disgusting but it's only reality. If you've ever bought fish fillets or fish and chips then this has been done to the fish at some point.
Photo in the comments shows the fish cooking on the barbecue. :-)
No visit to Vancouver would be complete without a visit to Granville Island. In addition to a massive farmers market featuring all sorts of freshly made products, there are many interesting art displays and shops to discover and explore.
Tucked away in the bustling heart of Tokyo, Tsukiji Market is a timeless blend of rich history and modern vitality. Once the world’s largest wholesale fish market, Tsukiji has evolved into a vibrant culinary and cultural hub since the inner wholesale market moved to Toyosu in 2018. The narrow lanes of the Outer Market, as captured here, are alive with energy as locals and tourists alike wander amidst rows of tightly packed shops and eateries. The architecture is a charming mix of old-world Japan and modern practicality, with low-rise, weathered storefronts sharing space with sleek high-rises peeking through the skyline.
Visitors flock here for the promise of freshly prepared sushi, grilled seafood skewers, and traditional delicacies like tamagoyaki. The stalls spill over with colorful produce, gleaming knives, and souvenirs, all under a tangle of overhead wires that add to the area’s urban charm. Blue banners and awnings bear Japanese kanji, invoking a sense of tradition and authenticity, while the organized chaos of foot traffic reflects the market's dynamic pulse. Tsukiji isn’t just a destination—it’s an experience that invites you to explore, taste, and immerse yourself in Tokyo’s culinary heritage. Whether you’re savoring melt-in-your-mouth sashimi or marveling at the precision of local artisans, Tsukiji Market captures the spirit of Tokyo in every bustling corner.
Repeat of the walk through the market at Lanacster armed with the CV 21mm f4 on an S2 for Nikon Rangefinder Month. Just missed the frame LHS, finder parallax I conclude.
Saturday in Thuir means one thing — fish. From delicate fillets of sole to gleaming prawns and oysters still whispering of the sea, this stall from Poissonnerie du Barcarès brings the Mediterranean straight to market. The fisherman may be no-nonsense, but his display is pure poetry on ice.

Le samedi à Thuir, c’est jour de poisson. Filets de sole délicats, crevettes luisantes, huîtres aux accents marins — l’étal de la Poissonnerie du Barcarès apporte la Méditerranée sur le marché. Le poissonnier ne parle peut-être pas beaucoup, mais son étalage est une véritable poésie sur lit de glace.
Two men have a friendly conversation in Yanagibashirengo Market, a fish market established in 1889, where one can find typical specialties of Fukuoka, such as mentaiko (hake or cod roe), abatteramo (dried fish) or gyoroke (fried fish). Next to merchants also regular housewives can be found selling food here, making the market a lively place, essential to the local community.
This is a typical coastal lunch, which is offered in every restaurant at the beaches of Santa Marta.It consists of fresh fish, coconut rice, patacones, which are fried green bananas, and salad. Mostly, you get also a delicious fish soup as appetizer.

Men and women are cleaning up their fishing nets on the beach next to Negombo fish market...
The location of the city of Negombo at the junction of Negombo Lagoon and the open sea makes it the perfect spot for a fishing port to harvest lobsters, crabs and prawns from the lagoon and a huge variety of fish from the ocean ranging from Stingrays, Barracuda, Tuna to Octopus, Squid, Mullet, and many other varieties in between.
Interesting to see the variety of fishing craft discharging their catch and the on-shore activities. Sellers, buyers, people gutting fish, drying racks; so many activities with lots of noise, colour, sizes, shapes and smells! You can also observe fishermen repairing and preparing their nets and boats for next-morning fishing trip.
The fish market continues a way of life that has existed for generations. It is an interesting place to visit at almost any time, although mid-morning may be the best time, to observe the many types of fish brought in for sale.
The fish is cleaned on the extensive beach in front of the fish market and spread out on jute mats to dry in the sun. The dry wind and radiant sun remove all the water and it gives the catch a longer expiration date for storage. Once dried, it is transported across the country. Dried fish is a commonly added ingredient in the national dish of Sri Lanka; rice and curry. It’s often added because it’s a good source of proteins.
The fishermen who are based at the Negombo lagoon live in abject poverty in shanty thatch palm villages along the water's edge. They rely mainly on their traditional knowledge of the seasons for their livelihood, using outrigger canoes carved out of tree trunks (oruvas and paruvas) and nylon nets to bring in modest catches from September through April. Negombo has a large bilingual population of Roman Catholics, known as Negombo Tamils who have their own Tamil dialect but mostly identify themselves as Sinhala.
Negombo is a major city in Sri Lanka, known for its long sandy beaches and centuries old fishing industry. Negombo has been an important sea port and trading centre since at least Portuguese times (early 1500s). The Dutch took over the Portuguese and built the fort (1672) and constructed a 120 km long canal.

Tremendous, tremendous, tremendous thanks to Victor. Firstly for looking out and secondly for sharing his epic striped bass catch. Heart is swollen; words can't emphasize the overwhelming gratitude.

Step into the vibrant hustle and bustle of Tokyo's Tsukiji Market, where tradition meets modernity in a maze of narrow streets and lively vendors. Once the world's largest fish market, Tsukiji holds a storied history dating back to the Edo period. Although the inner wholesale market has moved to Toyosu, the outer market remains a sensory feast. Here, you'll find stalls selling everything from fresh seafood to intricate Japanese knives, alongside tiny eateries serving steaming bowls of ramen and sushi so fresh it almost swims.
Architecturally, Tsukiji retains its charming, old-school vibe, with tightly packed low-rise buildings sporting traditional Japanese signage and awnings. Power lines crisscross overhead, creating a classic Tokyo street scene that feels both intimate and electric. This is not a polished tourist attraction but a living, breathing piece of Tokyo's cultural fabric. Locals and visitors alike meander through the crowds, drawn by the unmistakable aroma of sizzling street food and the possibility of uncovering hidden gems.
Beyond the market’s culinary delights, its energy reflects a unique slice of Tokyo life. The market is a snapshot of the city's ability to honor tradition while embracing the future. Don’t miss iconic items like tamagoyaki (Japanese omelet), skewered seafood, and green tea soft serve. Arrive early to experience the market at its most dynamic and vibrant. Whether you're here for a quick bite or a deep dive into Japanese food culture, Tsukiji offers a truly authentic urban adventure.
A trip to Boscastle proved to be very interesting and threw up some wonderful images.

At the Market Hall in Abergavenny, Monmouthshire, South Wales.
It is housed below the Town Hall.
One one side is also the Borough Theatre.
As well as the indoor market, there was some market stalls outside at the back.
The main entrance is on Cross Street.
It is Grade II listed as the Town Hall.
Location
Situated on the main commercial street which runs from south-east to north-west across Abergavenny. This is easily the largest, tallest and most dominant building in Abergavenny, visible in the countryside for miles around.
History
1869-71 (dated), by Wilson and Willcox of Bath after a competition; the contractors were S J Moreland and Sons of Gloucester. The tower clock was presented by Crawshay Bailey of Maindiff Court and is inscribed 'Gilbert and Bland, Croydon 1871'. The northern clock face is said to have been painted black to commemorate the death of Prince Albert, but he died in 1862. The assembly room was re-fitted as a theatre in 1906 and this was modernised in 1996. The building remains remarkably unchanged externally; the market hall is also unaltered.
Interior
The building was designed as a multi-purpose one to provide municipal offices and a council chamber, a general market, an assembly room, the corn exchange and the poor law offices; and it still houses all but the last two uses, now out-dated. In the main the interior is plainly finished and a number of spaces have been altered, there remain a number of internal features of note.
There are two main staircases, a stone one in short flights around a central core and a decorative iron one with hardwood treads and a continuous mahogany handrail; this latter one has been partly altered. The assembly room, now the Borough Theatre, has an open roof with very large and elaborate pine trusses with Gothic decoration and a decorated balcony front. It was converted to a theatre in 1906 when it accommodated 600, but it now seats 250. The council chamber, Mayor's Parlour and the committee rooms have deeply coffered ceilings but are otherwise plainly finished and have been altered. The tower houses two fine bells and a clock made by Gilbert and Bland of Croydon, which was presented by Crawshay Bailey in 1871. The corn exchange is top lit and has a 4-bay open-trussed roof. The market hall has a main nave with aisles and a subsidiary nave under a smaller and lower roof. The main roof is supported by two lines of six very tall cast iron posts which support wrought iron Warren girder rafters carrying light wrought iron purlins running the length of the roof; the apex is glazed.
Exterior
Built of coursed, rock-faced Old Red Sandstone with Bath limestone ashlar dressings, natural slate roofs. Large rectangular block at the centre of the town and with show fronts to Cross Street and Market Street, with a market hall in the angle behind. The style is rural Early French Gothic, but with some Italian touches. Three storeys, five windows to Cross Street and three windows to Market Street with a tall clock tower on the corner. The ground and first floors are contained within an arcade of five Gothic arches of a transitional pattern, the centre bay containing the main entrance through to the market hall and the left hand arch under the tower the entrance to the main stair to the council chamber and assembly room, now the Municipal Theatre. The arcade is of steeply pointed Gothic arches divided by Romanesque piers with stiff-leaf capitals. The stair door has colonettes, plank doors and an elaborate rose window with six vertical recesses below in the arch head. The other arches are slightly wider, with the market entrance closed by iron gates and the other three shop windows, glazed in three vertical lights, with the lunettes over glazed as triple sashes and lighting the mezzanine. The second floor has five 2-light windows with 1 over 1 pane sashes, divided by a central colonette, Caernarvon heads and paired cinquefoils in the tympanum. Double cill band with shields between. Eaves on stone brackets, large pitched roof hipped at the Market Street end and gabled at the other and with three vent cowls on either side of the ridge.
The lower stages of the tower are part of the main elevation. The first free-standing stage has three arrow slit windows to each face, over which is the clock dial, white with block letters (illuminated at night), black on the north side (see History), over this is the belfry stage with bell louvres, each 4-light with colonettes. Of these features only the clock face appears on the rear elevation of the tower. The top of the tower has machicolated battlements, a fretted balustrade and corner tourelles. These, and the central pyramid roof, are covered in copper and the bright green hue makes them easily visible at distance.
The Market Street elevation is in three bays with the features as before.
The far gable end looms high above The Kings Head Hotel and has a large plate tracery rose window with a central quatrefoil surrounded by eight smaller ones. Arch braced tie-beam gable truss, stack on gable.
The rear elevation is mostly covered by the market hall roof, but the Market Street end has an additional second floor window as before and the top half of a second one. There is also a large central stack on the rear wall.
The market hall projects across the whole rear and has two gabled roofs, the smaller on the left. Plain blind long walls. The large gable has seven graduated windows with a circular window above the largest and widest one in the centre. The smaller gable has three windows. The roofs have a wide glazed section along the ridge.
Reason for Listing
Included for its special interest as an the largest and most prominent secular building in Abergavenny with good architectural qualities as the design of Wilson and Willcox, well known West Country architects of the Victorian period.
