Manaus fish market pics
As promised, here are some of the many pics I took at the Manaus fish market during my visit. As it was the end of the rainy season, the diversity was fairly low. I still missed out on some spectacular finds, though. Someone else saw an 80 cm <i>Leiarius</i> in the market the day after I went.

and I those magnificent juruense... beautiful coloration, tough to believe they'd bring more for food than export.
