I love fish, I love the shape of them, the colour…..I find them fascinating. Maybe it is because I am a Pisces. Anyway, here are some I have spotted on my travels.
These are in the Piazza del Popolo in Rome.
Rome again, this time in front of the Pantheon.
The Piazza Navona is always good for finding fish.
I would love this over my doorway…..Rome again.
Poor, frozen fish in Florence.
Once a fish shop in Florence…….nice teeth.
Neptune’s fountain in Florence.
Fishing on the front of the Cathedral in Orvieto.
Found in a wonderful junk yard in Forte dei Marmi.
A fishy door handle in Sardinia.
Fish in Milan.
The next fish are at the fabulous fish market in Venice.
The gorgeous white church in Porto Cervo in Sardegna offered this one.
And a Sardegna deli had these.
I even spotted fish on a Helsinki building.
The brand new giant pike in Helsinki beats them all. Click here to see more on Laulupuut in Helsinki.
Closer to home, here are my own toes encased in fish sandals.
What a wonderful collection, Debra. I especially love the fish door handle AND your adorable sandals!!! Are they Italian??

Some of those are heraldic representations of dolphins. They tend to look like sea monsters…
I love your sandals!

I know some of them are not strictly fish, but they are a bit fishy.

I couldn’t resist them. I only wear flat shoes, so it is great to find fun sandals like this.

It is very impressive. The pike is new to Helsinki this year. I was there just after it was unveiled.

I love that handle too. I have some ceramic ones, which I forgot to photograph. I might do that right now.

I now have thousands of photo to sift through when looking for a theme. Some take a while to collect.

You may notice that my big toenails are different. I dropped a very large and heavy terra-cotta pot on my right toe and the toenail gre back in a completely different shape. I was lucky it grew back at all, I really smashed my toe.

You have the best ideas (and photos to go with) – that Helsinki pike is kind of creepy, no?
