You want sea creatures for this photo challenge? I live nowhere near the sea, so you won’t get a single live specimen here.
I’m British, so we’d better start with Fish and Chips.
For the rest, I’ll take you to museums…
Sea life gallery, National Museum of Scotland.
A fish, one of the many decorative features incorporated into Alfred Waterhouse’s Natural History Museum, London.
To Leeds City Market …
To the fish market in Cádiz …
A tuna head.
A display in the fish market.
To Jagalchi fish market in Busan, South Korea.
Such careful displays …
Have you ever seen a greater quantity of tiny fish? There were dozens and dozens of displays like this one.

My word, what interesting photographs your archives hold. You have such a good eye.

I can never resist a fishing picture.
I live in Grimsby where everyone likes fish and chips but only haddock.

I didn’t realise we were near neighbours. I have a soft spot for Grimsby. And haddock and chips.

Impressive! We get plenty of lake fish including tiny perch but I’ve never seen quantities like that!

Great pictures as always. Absolutely love fish and chips washed down of course with a nice cup of Yorkshire tea! x

Yes, I see creatures! You found a lot, after all!
I wish we could get decent fish & chips here, or any fish&chips, coming to think of it.

In answer to your question about a large quantity of small fish, yes I have. Any more but less variety in huge sacks in Malaysia. I was very impressed by the brown one at the museum and then I realised it wasn’t bread!

Haha! Nope, sandstone. East Asia certainly likes its fish, little and large, doesn’t it?

Mouthwatering selection of fish plenty to please the eye and nothing to offend the nose!!! Mind you it all looks so fresh can’t imagine any of it was particularly smelly.

Absolutely not. Both were the least smelly fish markets you can imagine.

An interesting collection of shots. I confess I don’t eat fish so the market ones are a bit eeuw from my pov and I am not sure about the mushy peas either but then I have never had the opportunity to try them 🙂

Mushy peas? If you weren’t brought up on them, don’t bother. Especially as I don’t think they’re ever served except with fish and chips.

When I think about it, my British grandmother cooked all vegetables so thoroughly that it would likely only have taken a quick stir with a fork to turn them to mush 🙂
