Hiding from the wife! by happypat

Hiding from the wife!

A lone fisherman fishing the North sea.

Three good things,
1. A day at home to catch up with jobs neglected.
2. Harry has managed to get the front lawn mown after all the rain.
3.I enjoyed a Tunnocks marsh mallow after my lunch.
He certainly is lonely, but probably loving every second, beautiful vista and love your processing, a very calm and gentle shot.

I hope he caught a fish to take home to the wife. A lovely composition.

Alot of fishermen just love this kind of solitude ...a time to think and be away from "it all." Gorgeous pov and beautiful color tones. Love the feel of this one, Pat. I need to start making a list of "three good things!" A great way to remind oneself that the glass is always half full. :)

He has certainly got away from it all!btw you asked about whose books I liked reading I have enjoyed reading Anne Tylers books Helen comprehended her, I did not find the last two quite so good " Dinnner at the homesick restaurant was my favourite.

@jgpittenger You've never lived until you've had a Tunnocks Marsh Mallow Tea Cake. Tho TBH last time I tried one it was a bit too sweet - but I can't resist a caramel wafer... http://www.tunnock.co.uk/products/teacakes.aspx

@snowy I have a feeling I have read some Anne Tyler books Diana but can't remember which & it was along time ago, will check up on my Kindle when I go to bed. She is very well known I think. Thank Diana, always like to hear of a good book. Am reading White Pearl at the moment & just getting into it. It's written by Kate Furnivall.

@snowy Have checked & I think it was The Ametuer Marriage I read but have just bought your favourite on my Kindle so will read it next. I am stocking up a bit for when I go to NZ so if I hear of a good one I will buy it, so easy on the Kindle, in fact too easy!!!!!!

The relaxing art of fishing! I've never had any wish to try but there must be something about it. Great shot. Love the peacefulness of it.
