Fishing Buddies

I spotted these two gentlemen while I was out for my brief photo walk this evening. They were so busy talking that they didn't even realize I snapped their photo. The guy on the right was having a bit of a backlash problem, but before long he had his line back in the water. You can see in the distance it was hot and humid, but that didn't stop these guys.

I can just hear the banter back and forth. Nice shot!

[Lynda Parker]

Hey, fly fishing... looks like they're having a good time. Wonder if they caught any. :)

Two guys fishing and relaxing ... doesn't get any better than that!! Beautiful pov and great lighting, Rick. Excellent candid capture!

[Linda Webb]

Love how clear they are against the background. Great shot!

[Sandie Reardon]

Boy, you're right. You can truly see the humidity in the air. They surely are preoccupied, too. They look like old friends.

[Kerri]

Great capture

[Paul Myers]

Fishermen don't care about the weather. As long as you can cast a line, they're satisfied.

Nice composition. Really tells a story.

[Louise & Ken]

What a lovely shot and I looked to see what time you took the picture as the lighting was so nice!

[Kimmi]

[Rick Schies]

@Weezilou The time says about 5:20pm, but I thought it was more 6 - 6:15, not sure why the difference.

[BeckyS]

Beautiful light. It looks so relaxing

[Lois P]

What a perfect shot Rick.

[Christie Hicks]

Pleasant way to spend a day with a buddy. You really captured a friendly feel with this candid shot. Oh, and maybe you need to change your camera setting for daylight savings.

[Shirley Banford]

Great catch. Hope they caught something too.

[Lydia]

Great shot! Passive fishing, as opposed to what my husband does....he stands out in rushing rivers with hip waders!

[Hillary Torrey]

Great capture,what a memory. Hope they had some luck!

[Rick Schies]

@christiehicks You know, I totally forgot about that. And following Sandie & Bev and the others, I find that you are also in the family. Never realized that.

[Paula x2 Brumbe]

Cool shot and DOF

[Carolyn White]

Wonderful candid capture, Rick!

[Netkonnexion]

Thats a wonderful candid. Nice one.

[Lisabell]

My husband is an avid fisherman and has a word for what is wrapped around the guy on the right's reel; however, I'm too much of a lady to repeat it here.

[hellcat]

Looks like fun times for them!

[Mike Llewellyn]

It is amazing to me how a fishing line can get so tangled up at times. Glad this guy got it worked out. Nicely done.

[Donna]

Great shot, good use of DOF. it does look hot & humid. I love the background , the subjects as sharp as tacts!

[Jane]

Rick this is an amazing shot, you have captured the intensity of the guy trying to get to grips with his fishing line.... love it! ♥

[Kathy Burzynski]

Really a fantastic shot - love the lighting and how clearly you see the fishing line in it.
