Sea Foam
This is a natural process occurring in especially big seas, where plankton and other small sea organisms are literally pulverised against the rocks of the shoreline, resulting in a very fine protein suspension in the sea which coats the air-bubbles created by the waves to create a stiff froth, just the same way as egg protein coats air bubbles to make meringue, and beer protein coats air bubbles to produce a head of foam in a beer glass. from viv.id.au/blog/20070827.871/sea-foam/
Snapper - Pagrus Auratus.
Taken at Leigh marine reserve, New Zealand
These fish are absolutely fearless in the reserve and at times swimming amongst them resembles being in a shark cage!

Another home-cook rice dish, with fish this time.
It is called tai-meshi in Japanese.
Recipe available on my blog>>
There was a pair of large snapping turtles doing the sort of thing animals do this time of year. The highlights on the nose sort of ruined this shot for me though.

I think the cameraphone is the Kodak Brownie of the 21st century. It's a camera that everybody - non-photographers, too -- have in their pockets at all times, meaning that the tapestry of recorded experience keeps getting broader and broader every day.
Seafood Market in Labrador on the Gold Coast, Queensland, August 5, 2014 Australia.
Today we meet up with a person from Flickr who lives in New Zealand and we just happened to be at Surfers that same week. We had a fantastic day together. First of all we went up to the top of the Q1 building. Then we visited the seafood market before having lunch.
Labrador is a suburb located on the Gold Coast in Queensland, Australia. The suburb overlooks the Gold Coast Broadwater to the east and Southport on the southern border.
There are many Aboriginal cultural sites across the Gold Coast. Labrador was part of traditional country for several families, due to the abundance of shell fish, mudcrabs, oysters and waterfowl in the area. The two local peoples most spoken of by the early settlers were the Yugambeh and Kombumerri Aboriginals.
Dawn Rix in her book Labrador - The early pioneers writes that a Scottish Engineer Robert Muir is believed to have named the area in the late 19th century after the a local fishery in north-eastern Canada, owing to the similarities both held in the recreational fishing of streams and the peninsula shape of the land.

This is the same Snapping Turtle after I yanked the fishing line from its mouth. I didn't get a hook when I pulled but the turtle was free of its anchor and able to swim without having to tow a long line of weeds with it. I have been assured by a good friend and herpetologist, that the turtle will now be fine as they are hardy and can sustain significant injury without dying. If you look closely you might see the small trail of blood coming from its mouth, leading to the left side of the photo off the frame. I did a quick yank so as not to induce too much tearing. I figured its sharp and powerful beak would cut the line, and it did!
Oh Snapper Number Four...the Wanderlust...it didn't take you far...your choice...it should have been thought out more.
I came upon you that June morn...near the top of an earthen dam...as you were attempting to lay your eggs. Determination was your undoing...did you think I would pass you by?
I then proceeded to take 628 pictures of this beauty. These were the first ones I chose to publish. More to come!
After the photo shoot I released her unharmed into a nearby river.
Her shell was 12" Long and she weighed somewhere around 8 to 10 lbs
