Nice family snap Walt.

Lots of Bass up here in the great white north.

Walter, for some reason I think I might suggest that you sit down next 
time you take a shot such as this. This viewpoint is at least worth trying.

Cheers.

Feels somewhat like a happy snap.  I would have preferred a lower
angle to the shot - as is, feels like I am looking down on them.

Nice shot. Bass seem to be all over. We have lots of them in the  
Michigan lakes. A friend of mine caught a six pound Smallmouth Bass  
in the Detroit River downtown, and Detroit's Lake St. Claire is a  
regular stop on the Bassmaster's tournament.  I caught a smallmouth  
in Canada's Lake of the Woods. Largemouths are even more common.  
Every little pond in Michigan is full of Largemouth Bass.

Great shot, Walt! The sunny smiles remind me of days in Vermont  
summer...

Catch 1 is definitely a reason to get up early!
Nice capture!

Please use in fully specified URLs like the above when you post  
links, Bob. It's a lot easier for everyone.


Both are neat photos.

I love the feel and composition in Catch1 ... you got that morning  
light and the water just right.


Catch2 is more a "Yay, I got one!" than a stunning photographic  
composition. Getting *any* picture of a whale is a decent  
achievement. :-)


hmm. i have to get out with my camera more often again now. i've been  
socked in with getting pictures processed and rendered for so long ...

Re: PESO: Today's catch

[Bruce Dayton]

Very nice sunrise.  You managed to keep some detail in the boats,
which I like.  The mood is wonderful.  On the right edge it is a bit
overexposed and I see some minor flare, but all in all, nicely done.
I would be tempted to play around with that one quite a bit to see
what could be done with it (who's to say you haven't already done
that).

The whale brings back memories for me.  The last time I was in Maui,
it was whale season.  You could see them out in the bays quite often.
We took a sailing outing in one of the old America's Cup vessels - so
small group and crew and no motor noise.  It was amazing to be out
there among the whales and hear them spouting and such.  I don't think
I ever got any pictures to be proud of - I'll have to look through
them again.  You get almost no warning when they surface or breach and
it is over so fast - one would really have to practice and learn the
patterns of the whales to get some good shots.

Thanks for sharing and bringing back some memories.

Re: PESO: Today's catch

[Bob Sullivan]

Thanks Paul, Fernando, and Godfrey,

I have other shots of that pair of boats with slightly different compositions.
They were cropped more tightly, but on review I liked the water on the edges.

And Paul you're right, the whale shot is a 'Gee wiz, look what I
found' rather than good photography.  To Godfrey's point, the lesson
taught is to carry your camera around and take more pictures.  You
never know what you'll find.
Cotty, thanks for catching the comma...typing late last night.

And the whale was back this morning.

Regards,  Bob S.

Good, nice, etc, as many other has said ;-)

About the URL typo. To copy and paste directly from the browser winder is
the fool proof method when posting links.

Hi!

and
 members.aol.com/rfsindg/Catch2.jpg


Bob, you should consider adding http:// in front of your links and 
properly spell - comma and colon can be disastrously different.


Catch1 is rather excellent photograph. Catch2 is, well, so-so.

I think Catch1 deserves proper processing and printing real big. I 
should remember this kind of idea for future reference ;-).
