About the Image(s)
During September I visited the Greek Island of Paros. One morning we spotted fishermen hanging fresh octopus on their boats. That evening we returned to sample the grilled appetizer. My first time eating octopus; the texture was reminiscent of shrimp; the meat had little flavor - but the marinade/grilling was fantastic! Worth trying it (at least once) - if you can get it fresh. I rarely photograph my food - but couldn't resist.

The image has so much color and texture. The image is sharp. You can really see the suckers. Not sure I would want to eat that, but Ido not experiment with my food!!!!   Posted: 10/04/2025 20:27:32
Thanks Cindy. I'm also usually not usually adventurous with food . . . glad I tried this; my son was with me - perhaps he was my motivation/strength.   Posted: 10/05/2025 17:09:30
I've never tried food photography, but I can see why this appealed to you. Kudos to you for experimenting! Children, even when they are grown, are part of what keeps us young. As are cameras, I find.   Posted: 10/06/2025 17:06:19
