Several weeks ago, I photographed octopuses for a post on my foodblog, www.2gourmaniacs.com. A couple of days afterwards, I was looking at images on cellphone’s memory card, and I found a capture of an octopus in a colander that I made at the same time as the octopus shoot. And, yeah, I seriously manipulated the digital file in Photoshop; something I really don’t do all that often. Anyway, I like this one: it has that painterly-cartoon quality which is pretty interesting, and I like the positive-negative of the holes in the colander and the suckers on the octopus’s legs.
