Paula’s theme this week is Summertime. Stuck for this one, I went back to a holiday a few year ago to show some distinctly Summer:
Boys will be boys

Photos, art - and a little bit of LIT.

Perfect! I love the fishy action shot.
Thanks! I was pleased with that one 🙂 and it was wonderful eaten later!
Love the first image 😀
😀😀
Where was the fish gutted? It could be anywhere in the Adriatic 😉 Thank you, Sue.
Lanzarote..so North Atlantic! 😧

wonderful- love the 2nd one!
Thank you! 🙂
A very romantic feel to these photos Sue. I like the soft effect.
Thanks, Sue….first person to comment on that!
Fantastic summer images, Sue. Fish doesn’t come much fresher than this. 🙂
Absolutely!
Nothing like fresh fish straight from the sea, prepared and cooked as you watch. That took me back to summer holidays in Greece, even though it was Lanzarote.
Best wishes, Pete.

What I most like is the way your subjects are totally oblivious to (of? I’m having prepositional problems) the camera. You’ve captured true portraits, snippets from other lives.
I try to capture snippets of other lives, as you say, in a way that might make someone looking at the image wonder what the story is (and of course neither they nor I know the person’s real story) and people are largely oblivious to my camera because I aim to be unobtrusive (but some might say this is sneaky)…..
The use of black & white gives your photos such an interesting edge, makes them so much more engaging.
Thanks, Charlie – that’s certainly true of the first one 🙂
Somehow, the black and white makes it seem even hotter, I don’t know why…more edgy, giving more of a hint of the stories behind the capture. Great shots Sue 🙂
I think it’s the hint of the stories untold….
Definitely…love that!
He reminds me of the TV chef whose name I’m struggling to remember. He may well be deceased… alcohol related… but he had a wayward air about him that I liked. None of which has anything to do with your great photos 🙂
He does have a Keith Floyd air about him – the hair, I think!
Thanks for nudging the memory, Sue 🙂 Knew I could rely on you.
Haha…funny the things I recall!
Oh, and Mr Floyd is definitely no longer with us….
Fresh fish is great! I love it.
Straight from the sea – wonderful!
Very nice 😀 It could easily be a scene from a Greek island!
Oh, definitely!
