📸 This is meant to convey two messages.⠀
1 - Seize the moment, whatever camera is with you.⠀
2 - It's not about the camera, it's about the photographer.⠀

🐠 Full story? While talking business with a client at their restaurant and no shooting scheduled, a fish truck arrives interrupting us. They unload a lot of big boxes full of what was fished during the night. I spot an opportunity to show how fresh the restaurant's fish is. ⠀
Now don't misunderstand me, stiff blast chilled fish (as per sanitary rules) doesn't usually look good (at all), but sometimes you manage to steal very authentic action shots. So I end up in the kitchen following the owner's checking the merchandise.⠀
⠀
🐋 He checks the seabass box, puts one down and bang it hits me: good composition, amazing colors, perfect reflection of the kitchen's neon on the fish flakes plus a tiny little bit of back daylight from an open door. ⠀
I take my phone out, do my manual settings, lock the focus and I take the picture. ⠀
Here it is.⠀
⠀
🐟 Now, don't get me started on kitchen neons, they are so dreadful that they could kill a master's photography and I usually nowadays refuse to shoot under kitchen neon, but sometimes one has to try. ⠀
⠀
😍 So don't stop trying and believe in yourself. ⠀
❤ Check comments for camera, lens and EXIF.⠀
