From Tide to Table

My Photo scholarship 2010 entry

Worldwide | Friday, August 27, 2010 | 3 photos

I am interested in tracing food to source. Watching these brightly coloured Javanese Fishing boats return with the day's catch was indeed, one of life's magic moments- From tide to table- how fresh, how scrumptious.

We so often buy supermarket food with no idea of it's origin and never sure how fresh it might be. Bargaining on the beach for your own fish to cook, just caught, changes the flavour and improves the taste. It isn't just the fish, it is the total experience- from tide to table. Food plays such an integral part of travel, it help understanding of the history and culture and I think there is an opportunity to increase food-related travel photography - food is my passion- I'd love to photograph it around the world.
