Let me begin by saying that I hate Octopuses, seriously. But being as that may, your photo is wonderful. You have captured a moment that most haven't seen.

Wonderful capture Fred, her pants kind of match the octopus lol! Super DOF to bring the octopus to the f/g and the lady and boats to the b/g. Excellent techs all around!;)

it is my wife: she likes octopus but doesn't wear every day matching colors; LOL

Comment from gidavidson
A neat journalism shot, I can almost smell the air as the octopus are drying. I know a lot of people like to eat them, however, they are not my favorite food. Good focus and frame.

That is just Nasty! Sorry, but looking at a squid in an aquarium is about as far as I can go and only because it's behind glass!

The shot is really nice. I like the fact that the focus is one the tentacles and not the fisherman.

An interesting picture of these drying Octopus under the watchful eye of the Fisherman. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting with superb camera techniques with sharp focus.
