Caught this image of my daughter in the pool in the sunset. Camera was
Sony A7
and lens was Mitakon 50mm/f0.95.


I like the image. My only issue is that it is a bit too centered for my
taste.

Fine image.

And cropping is just fine for my taste.maj\


It would indeed be a dull world if we all had the same taste.

More pepper please...


Yellow curried shrimp, with chutney.

Darn. I rushed off to the nearest big city with Google and Yelp searches
for Indian restaurants, found one with the name Curry in it, somewhat
near where I needed to go anyway.

Sadly, no shrimp was to be found, and I had to settle for Chicken Tikki
Marsala. And the chutney sucked. It was all liquid, no chunks of mango
at all. Give me Major Grey's anytime. The owner said that Marsala was
also a Brit invention. But it cost me only $10 and the Naan was
excellent. No ale either, not even an inch.

Not sure that Marsala was an English invention. All that means is it's
cooked in Marsala wine, which originally was grown in, or near the City
of Marsala, IT.
That said, I would think that Major Grey's Chutney and a yard of ale are
one of the few decent foods created by the Brits.
I used to get mine in a British style restaurant. A short time after it
closed, the former matre di opened a place of his own. Sadly no curries.
I did find decent curried shrimp at several Thai restaurants. While the
places I tried didn't have ale, they did have a decent Thai beer. (Life
moves on, and we humans are adaptable creatures.)

Two very different things.
Marsala is the Italian wine. Masala (no "R") is the spicy curry sauce.
So chicken tikka masala is not comparable with chicken marsala.

That's "Masala" not "Marsala." Biiiig difference.

....and you compounded that error. That is what happens when you order
food based on phonics and erroneous spelling rather than knowledge of
the cuisine.

I can just see Guido's face when he orders Chicken Marsala at the
Bombay Curry Palace, and is greeted with the spicy fragrance of masala.
