trout fishing in the smokies
one of the many sites you will see coming thru the great smoky mountains. trout fishing. couldnt have asked for better timing, having a fisherman set in the right gear, the water, and lighting.
i shot this in black and white, it has not been converted , and yes i do have color, that will be uploaded later, but i wanted something different ;), and this was shot with my new 17-85mm lens :) i love it already :):)
trout fishing in the smokies belongs to the following groups:

Fantastic capture, it looks like a very old picture, taken a long time ago when b/w was all there was. Great imagery, detail and scenery

Darlene Marrya...
Wow Chris, you have really captured this perfectly and I love it in B & W!!! The height in this shot adds such a feeling of the size of the surroundings compared to the fisherman. I love the overall feel of this too, such peace and beauty! I wish I was in my hip waders standing right beside him…I’d probably out fish him too! LOL

Great framing with the trees in the foreground. They help direct the eye toward the center of the image.

They say it is best to shot in color then convert to B&W Great tones and composition!
Christopher E... replied
ya but who listens to what “they” say? i sure dont…lol i do have some color shots also, just havent uploaded anything yet . if you see any of my BW (or sepia), its because i shot it that way, something about the conversion, takes away instead of the camera adjusting to the setting :) thanks very much michele :):)
