Description
I came upon this swordfish in a grocery store. It was laying upon a container of ice and two young men were cutting up the steaks. All in all, it was a fairly festive scene. I took several pictures, but I could never get settled on the celebratory atmosphere that prevailed. This great fish was the focus of my interest and it was dead. I somehow had to find a way to convey that without seeming maudlin. There can be a kind of beauty in death that transcends our emotion around the basic concept. Although, at base this picture is about food, it is certainly about something more.

Awesome!!! Love the processing!

Thanks G&C, I think part of it is the available (and very weird) lighting in the store. My exposure was a little long and hand held so there's a softness to the overall image that I think contrasts well with the hardness of the subject.
