The Venice fish market

I love fish markets and the one in Venice is one of the most interesting I have seen. Apart from the addition of refrigeration it probably looks much as it has for centuries in its position beside the Grand Canal. The decoration at the top of the columns in the covered area is particularly lovely.

A lot of care is put into the displays of the seafood. I would like to have an apartment with a kitchen so I could try some of the things I saw. Some things were familiar and others not.

I not sure about the last photo. Are they oysters?Any suggestions?
