Photo of the Day- "Released Again"

A really cool photo captured this weekend, the first fish of the day, low light, no polarized filter on the lens, an absolutely terrific shot. 

Celebration Weekend

Well, there was a milestone birthday celebrated over the weekend at the Floatfisher compound on the 

river. My precious, beloved wife,  eclipsed 600 months ( 50 years) today, in typical fashion, she wanted to be no where else but on  the river, only fitting.

Happy Birthday, Sweetheart.

I started to treat her to a day on the river, but anytime we have our little boat down, she just love to row it. So not being one to argue, she got the initial stink off the boat with the first couple of fish, and we 

switched spots for the rest of the morning. We forgot how fun our little 10.5' Jack Plastic " Fatboy" is, well, Ms. Floatfisher has two "fat boys" in the family now.

The augmentation on the river is over for the summer months, so the water was on the drop this weekend. The water was in spectacular shape the fish were just off a little bit, guess we are just very spoiled!! Instead of catching lots, we only caught 1/2 that many. Thats alright , single Chubby or Orange foam PMX was the meal ticket.

Taking A Break

As mentioned I am working on a new project, that I will reveal a later date, but I am shooting a lot

of photo's right now, so there are a lot of rejects and samples I am working with. It is giving me a chance to try some new things, and work with new photographic materials.

 Hope to be coming up with a new show for the fall / winter 2013.

Fish Art to Street Art

AFTER - by amos oner - from demolition pumpkin on Vimeo.

I have always been intrigued by street art and graffiti, there is vandalism and there is art. I really dig the talent and vision these young folks have to create these murals on the side of buildings, poles, walls or whatever they can find. In this case, it is a plywood that gets re-used over and over .

I am surprised there has never been an artist to paint a series of trout or flies on the old railroad car that sit on the side of the various river. Think that would be cool.

Just saying..
