Fishing by hjbenson

Fishing

Took a 25 minute drive out to Parvin State Park in Pittsgrove. the park consists of over 1300 acres with two lakes. There is a 5K hiking trail around the larger lake that I took today. On the lake I could see several boats of people fishing. Best Viewed Large

For my other photo of today http://365project.org/hjbenson/others/2012-04-20
Great reflection

I like everything about this shot - the guy fishing, the reflection and the way the tree, limbs and leaves frame him.

@maggiemae To answer your question, Maggie; I took 54 photos on the walk in Parvin State Park. I tend to take three types of photos: story, the two I posted are in this category and it is the most common that I post; Fun - photos that bring a smile to my face and I do post them occasionaly, an example of this type from yesterday is http://365project.org/hjbenson/third/2012-04-19; the third type, I will call artistic for lack of a better term, there is something that strikes me abour the photo and this type I post the least, an example of this type from yesterdat is http://365project.org/hjbenson/third/2012-04-20. As to whether I posted the best one that is to subjective for me to answer :)
