Photographer’s Note
Since it is that time of year again, I figure there may be several folks who only have fish on Friday for a bit. Hopefully they haven't given up TE for Lent!
Here's your choice of dinner for tonight, we have some nice Tilapia, Pompano, Ribbon Fish, Mackerel, Butter Fish all flash frozen and ready to take home, or you can stand in line at the counter to get fresh snapper, grouper, salmon. There's a box of fish heads over by the aquariums if you fancy some soup.
This was taken at Seafood City, an Asian Market in University City, Missouri. The link above takes you to last photograph I posted from our stop at this place. It is a special market, there are several like it on Olive Blvd., but this one is always packed with people bustling around the store. It's not a quick stop in and out type of place - you have to be prepared to wait in line for a bit to get fish, shrimp or live frogs, blue crabs ready to check out, then there is another line of people crunched up near the front of the store to check out. I find it an interesting if smelly place and always buy my shrimp there as they have the best selection for the best price. Heck, you can buy it there almost as cheap as you can catch it in Florida!
Well, it's Friday in St. Louis, finally. I hope you all have a great weekend - we get snow tomorrow!

Excellent daily life shot. We usually only see such images taken in the far east, so it makes a change to see one in the US. You have managed to catch the people all oblivious to your camera and the composition placing the counter on a diagonal works very well.
