Enthusiasm
In life as well as fishing it’s all about the journey!
As the sunrise burned through the fog early Sunday morning, on Clear Lake near Hunstville, Ontario, two fishermen enthusiastically set out for their favourite fishing spot…
This shot was as a result of an early morning walk in
August 2008 in the fog: part planning, part serendipity. I particularly like the fact that compared to a lot of fog shots it displays color, to I think, an advantage and shows the promise of a beautiful sunny summer day emerging…

Remarkable to see a lake of this size – only on American movies would I see this! – Don’t think I’d want to brave the chill, though. Nice swirl in the water as the boat curves – a good angle to catch.
