Hunters gathering - # 255


I enjoyed watching these two for several minutes. They were engrossed, having a great time, and totally focused on something they were convinced was there and catchable.
This is just a snap of two lads enjoying the river and the sunshine, a whole cosmos away from the "surreal and fantastic illusions" phase of the recent set of photos.

  1. It's always heartening to see teenage boys out fishing. We hear so many bad things about our youth, it's good to see them enjoying real life. I love the sun here.

  2. Quite a striking composition - it has impact as soon as you open the page. The way the blue girders and the jetty timbers form a simple frame for the subject, and the subject itself is nicely spotlighted. I'll also go along with Mike, although I hope they're not fishing out clandestine drug drops. What a thought, I'm ashamed of myself and retract it immediately
