Saulblum said at 2:51 p.m. on May 20, 2009: Nice textures and patterns. The one with the eyes is creepy!
Eduardo.affonso said at 2:56 p.m. on May 20, 2009: The whole place is creepy, SAUL... Many animals were still alive - or dying or being killed. Jason, Freddy Krueger, Michael Myers, Jack the Ripper & Dick Cheney would feel at home there.
NeusinhaGedoz said at 2:59 p.m. on May 20, 2009: Eduardo, o tabblo é lindo, incontestavelemente lindo. Mas como não gosto de peixe (e quero distância desta espécie), estou exatamente como o moço da primeira foto: tapando o nariz com a manga da camisa. Rsrsrs. Gosto do teu trabalho. Tenho satisfação em apreciá-lo.
Eduardo, the tabblo is beautiful, unquestionably beautiful. But as I do not like fish (and I kind of distance), I just like the boy in the first picture: tapando the nose with the sleeve of the shirt. Rsrsrs. I like your work. I am happy to enjoy it. pesquisar
Rita.Mandarino said at 3:12 p.m. on May 20, 2009: Que fotos legais. Diferente da Neusinha eu adoro peixe de qualquer jeito, cru, frito, cozido menos vivo no prato Uh! . Nice tabblo my friend, nice market
Liliana said at 3:33 p.m. on May 20, 2009: ¡¡¡¡Cuánto rojo!!!!! - comentario de Rodri. :) Estaba esperando este Tabblo desde que pusiste el pie en Japón. Mejor, imposible. Impresionante e informativo. Me gustan las fotos con repeticiones, logran un ritmo y un estilo artístico. ¿Es un mercado mayorista, donde compran las pescaderías, por eso abre muy temprano...? Una de mis favoritas es la del cuchillo, tal vez porque haya menos pescado o ... sei lá.
Eduardo.affonso said at 3:35 p.m. on May 20, 2009: NEUSINHA: Parodiando uma poeta portuguesa, eu diria que pessoas sensíveis são capazes de comer peixe, mas não são capazes de matar um peixe - e eu me incluo nessa categoria. Gosto de peixe (e muito!), mas admito que o espetáculo dessa carnificina (ou será peixificina?) me embrulhou um pouco o estômago. A propósito (mas sem ter nada a ver...), gostei do "tapando the nose"... rs
RITA: Nem me fale do peixe vivo, agonizando no prato. Aí é que me embrulha o estômago de vez.
Eduardo.affonso said at 3:38 p.m. on May 20, 2009: LILIANA: Sim, é um mercado atacadista. Abre cedíssimo, para o leilão do atum (mas para este teríamos que madrugar ainda mais). Há peixe de todos os mares (inclusive, suponho, de mares de Netuno, Plutão, Alfa Centauro), criaturas de todos os abismos submersos, coisas que eu jamais suporia serem comestíveis. O vermelho, à parte ter sido uma opção estética nessa séria, é mesmo a cor dominante por ali (breve haverá uma segunda parte, mais dourada). A da faca também é uma das minhas favoritas.
Dyowi said at 3:44 p.m. on May 20, 2009: Wow! tokyo has a reputation to have the best seafood. great photos!
Liliana said at 3:58 p.m. on May 20, 2009: Es verdad, hay cosas tan extrañas... las llamaría en japonés, ni deben de tener nombre en castellano.
Tishfish said at 5:55 p.m. on May 20, 2009: Gosh, there is a lot of fish there. Nice shots Eduardo ! ! !
Mrsfabulous said at 6:13 p.m. on May 20, 2009: Wow! Very nice shots, Eduardo.
.... said at 6:16 p.m. on May 20, 2009: Gostei muito desse tabblo.Cores vivas,diversas formas... Além de tudo ,peixe é bom e faz bem. Se formos analisar o que é comestível,ficaríamos sem comer várias coisas,pela forma ,pelo cheiro, pela cor e assim por diante... Parabéns por fotografar as estranhezas desse universo!
Moabjeeper said at 7:59 p.m. on May 20, 2009: ugh, I don't eat fish and I can just imagine the odors.
Fabio_DL said at 8:06 p.m. on May 20, 2009: Mais um trabalho maravilhoso seu, Eduardo! Obrigado por ter levantado cedo para ir a este mercado. Valeu a pena! Parabens, e abracao, meu amigo!
quincas1979@***.com said at 9:56 p.m. on May 20, 2009: Interessante como uma boa fotografia nos remete a várias sensações. Seja imaginando o cheiro do mercado, manifestando a vontade ou o asco de ingerir os frutos do mar, fica comprovado o talento do fotógrafo, que captou imagens capazes de emocionar. Parabéns, Eduardo!
Ira said at 10:52 p.m. on May 20, 2009: Great riches.
Swedfinn said at 11:40 p.m. on May 20, 2009: The place you can satisfy all your sences in one spot and the curiosity as well. great presentation!
Debdog said at 12:12 a.m. on May 21, 2009: AHHH!!! all the EYES!!!!!!!!! i admit i am not a huge fish fan ;) great shots however
Karsten said at 12:21 a.m. on May 21, 2009: Well, i am a huge fish fan - and you made me hungry..haha.. great captures Edu! The one with the knife is just great (thinking of the great quality of japanese knifes...!!!) And what a variaty of fish they have!! I hope that you have a chance to try some - if you like fish, of course..haha! ;-)
Karsten said at 12:38 a.m. on May 21, 2009: just had to come back - forgot to wink you :-) Is there anything better than fresh fish???? Looking foreward to vol. 2..!!!
Wildthing said at 3:34 a.m. on May 21, 2009: Makes me think of a mortuary. All those cadavers laid out. But it's all part of life's rich tapestry, and brilliantly photographed.
Charlespop said at 3:53 a.m. on May 21, 2009: Fantastic work....This place is a really good place to eat raw fish......and remember the best stuff is the fish that has just been cut up and is so fresh that it still moves !
Hhwind said at 9:31 a.m. on May 21, 2009: Wow an eye opener an excellent tabblo
Eduardo.affonso said at 10:42 a.m. on May 21, 2009: DYOWI: Tokyo has probably the best seafood in this galaxy!
DOREEN, MYLES, IRA, JORMA, DEBBIE,
ROBERT: To be frank, I do remember the colors and the rush, but not the smell!
CIDA, FÁBIO, JOAQUIM: Há duas coisas que jamais deixo de visitar numa cidade - os mercados e o cemitério. São sempre um grande estímulo visual, e excelentes para se pensar na vida. Álém de render boas fotos, sempre.
KARSTEN: I am a huge fish fan, too (or at least I was until I visited this market...). The variety of fish is amazing (I'm sure some are from Neptune or Krypton) and I tried some for lunch (but this will be shown on another tab).
MIKE: Not just a mortuary - it is also an execution chamber. There is blood everywhere, one can almost feel fish souls floating in the air.
CHARLES: Please don't mention fish still moving while being eaten. I still have nightmares with such scene...
MARGALIT said at 12:05 p.m. on May 21, 2009: These are amazing fish with strange eyes, and beautiful colors, and octopus look like coral
Chaitiamma said at 1:08 p.m. on May 21, 2009: Did you eat any Sashimi there ? Lucky you !!!
DEE-Trow said at 6:36 p.m. on May 21, 2009: You really captured this market and all it has to offer. The pics are terrific, of course, but nothing looks very appetizing to me and I know it wasn't appetizing to you either. Love how you put this all together. You are so good!
Abking said at 11:23 p.m. on May 21, 2009: This is a riot of form and color. You brought out the personalities of each and every fish.
Shenresi said at 1:51 p.m. on May 22, 2009: wow, what a colourful explosion, Eduardo and also wonderful portraits, exspecially of the fishes- lol -!!!
Pkeener said at 2:45 p.m. on May 22, 2009: red and rowdy! love the collage of all the fish and the people in the market!
Loes said at 7:25 p.m. on May 22, 2009: Oh my, this is very special, it reminds me of the fish market in Barcelona!
EMA said at 4:27 p.m. on May 23, 2009: Your photos are perfect, Edu, but all those open dead eyes and mouths and the bloody knife and stools... turned my stomach. I'm like you. May eat fish but could never kill it! :)
Angelaconze said at 8:54 p.m. on May 24, 2009: muito sanguinolento tudo isso. acho que não me sentiria bem nesse lugar...
Demberg said at 12:04 a.m. on May 26, 2009: as fotos estao magnificas !!!! ja nao gostava muito de peixe ... agora entao ... nem quero sentir o cheiro ... aliás, as fotos estao tao reais, vivas, que me veio o cheiro de peixe aqui ... pra variar, vc deu outro show nas fotos !!!
Shenresi said at 6:49 a.m. on May 31, 2009: yes, really magnificiant fotos, Eduardo!!!
Mjpileggi said at 7:49 p.m. on Jul 7, 2009: Love the octopus.
