Shrimp and lobster fishing off Howth, a peninsula in north County Dublin Ireland.
The Longhorn Cowfish (Lactoria cornuta) is a strange-looking fish, a variety of boxfish, recognizable by its long horns that protrude from the front of its head, rather like those of a cow or bull.
These horns make them hard for predators to swallow. In any case their flesh is poisonous and would not make for a very good meal.
The longhorn cowfish's standard color is yellow ranging to olive with white or blue-white spots, but other morphs exist with orange or green coloration. No visible differences between male and female fish. They are a resident of the Indo-Pacific region and can grow up to 45 cm long. Its primary habitat is coral reefs in lagoons, on reef flats, and on protected seaward reefs. Depth range is 1–45 m, perhaps up to 100 m. In the wild, a single male are usually found with a group of females.
Longhorn cowfish are omnivorous and can be observed in the wild searching for benthic invertebrates in the sand, eat various marine algae, and snacking upon snails, tubeworms, and small fish.
This picture was taken in Burgers Ocean, a part of Burgers Zoo in Arnhem, the Netherlands.

De gehoornde koffervis (Lactoria cornuta) is een vreemd uitziende koffervis en behoort tot de kogelvisachtigen. De vis is herkenbaar aan zijn lange hoorns die uitsteken aan de voorkant van zijn kop, net als bij een koe of stier. Door de horens kunnen ze moeilijk door roofdieren ingeslikt worden. Bovendien is hun vlees giftig, dus niet zo geschikt voor een goede maaltijd.
De standaard kleur van de gehoornde koffervis is geel, maar ze kunnen ook groen tot oranjebruin zijn. Ze hebben witte of blauwwitte vlekken. Er zijn geen zichtbare verschillen bekend tussen mannelijke en vrouwelijke vissen. De maximale lengte is 45 cm, maar meestal zijn ze 15 à 25 cm lang.
Ze komen voor in de Rode Zee, de Indische Oceaan, de wateren rond Indonesië en het oostelijk deel van de Grote Oceean. Vaak leven ze in wiervelden bij rotsen en koraalriffen tot een diepte van 45 meter, echter tot 100 meter diepte kunnen ze af en toe ook worden aangetroffen.
In het wild leeft een mannetje meestal samen met een groep vrouwtjes.
Gehoornde koffervissen zijn omnivoren en leven van algen, kleine ongewervelden, slakken, wormen en kleine vissen.
Deze foto is genomen in Burgers Ocean, het aquariumdeel van Burgers Zoo.

I took this photo with my Nikon D8ooE and the AF-S Nikkor 28-300mm f3.5-5.6G ED VR lens.
The two sea fishing man were fishing on a very tiny rock in the sea. It looks very dangerous for me but I think it's a peace of cake for them.

I went down to catch the low Spring Tide, but was too late.
So I end up putting yet another silhouette and sunbeams photo up.
"On my way for picking up apples on an old apple tree in the nearby field, I met Jean, "Hi! how are you doing Jean?"
Jean: "well! as an old peasant, you know I am 83’ …oh well, for some time now, I’m feeling worried about all damage (we all) caused to the “Bocage” decades ago… But besides everything's going fine.... Hep! before you go, just Have a look around, the sun is still shining, and I can hear Birdsong… You got it?" Read more from pentyofamelie blog post (All on That Day On My Way)

Feels good to be published in the SeaAngler Magazine..And little Charlie just one reading the story.
Took a few chances to get into this position on those rocks, all went well (This time)
Nice bloke, Canny Lad as they say up there.
Have you ever bought a camera and then sold it only to regret that sale later? I bought a Contax T2 about 16 years ago but mainly used it to take slide shots which I then turned into prints to run through a day lab to make polaroid transfers. I never appreciated the amazing quality of the lens and the fact a point and shoot could produce such great results. I let it go cheaply as funds were tight but I see second hand T2s are highly prized still today.

Unusually I have been unable to find any other photos/information about this stock?
Part of the Whitby heritage sculpture trail, nine sculptures by the local artist Emma Stothard.
This was a difficult but also enjoyable sketch and leaves plenty of room for improvement. The girls would usually work in two's or there's, two girls would gut and salt the herrings and the third would pack the fish into barrels. This would have been a common sight in the late eighteenth and nineteenth century.
