Catch of the Day

27Aug10

After a long day (started at 2.30 a.m. when some clown set off the fire alarm in our hotel) we have travelled by plane, train and automobile (in that order) from London to the Catalan coast for a walking holiday.  After a such a day there was little energy left to do more than find something to eat.  Being on the coast means fresh fish in abundance.  Once you have fresh sardines grilled over charcoal with olive oil and garlic the tinned variety seem a pretty poor alternative.

Very little was done to this shot.  The WB was corrected and a little Recovery for the reflected highlights on the fish scales were the principal corrections.  Contrast was boosted through moving the Black Point, adding a slight s-curve and giving Definition a real boost to bring out the texture.

They really did taste delicious!
