Feeling Fishy





One of my favorite things to do in Korea is wander
the local fish markets (I live near the coast, so there
are plenty to wander). I'm always torn between
horror at the sheer number of creatures that have
been removed from the ocean (how are there any
fish left at all out there?! is a constant thought...)
and wonder at how seriously cool everything is.
These shots were all taken on a recent outing with
my parents to the monstrous Jagalchi Fish Market
in Busan...dried shrimp, fresh squid, something
unfortunate on a hook, live tiger prawns and clams.
