Such beautiful pictures!!! I really like the sunset ones, and adore the jellyfish ones- the ones we get out here don't look nearly so photogenic. They're sort of anemic-looking and they don't contrast much with the sand, as opposed to the red and the rocks. Dog salmon look very scary- remind me not to antagonize one unless it is with a fishing rod (because YUM). I'm so happy you had such a great and relaxing trip and that things are settling in nicely back at the homestead. *hugs*

It's a dog salmon. And yeah, it does look evil. Tastes pretty divine, though!

LOL! That's what I thought, too!

Ewwww! Why do they leave the head on when they serve it?

Oh, it wasn't on. My mum hacked it off before putting the platter on the table. It just caught my eye when we were cleaning up the kitchen.

Though, you know, fish heads are actually considered a delicacy among the local tribes. My cousin's kids actually beg for the eyes.

*shudders a bit*

I like rooting out the cheeks and eating those.

That's a very scary fish.
