Gone Fishin'

Went on a family camping trip to Trillium Lake this week. I woke up early Friday morning to complete fog. After it burned off a bit, I made my way around the lake and found this fisherman enjoying a magical morning.

The light here is fantastic - this is an amazing image - the inclusion of the fisherman is a great addition

Thanks for the comments guys. I like this image a lot. My only wish is that the fisherman had pointed his pole at a slight angle to the left to make it more apparent. Other than that, I'm quite happy with how it turned out.

This is fantastic. It would make a great magazine photo.

This is good enough that you might consider trying to peddle it to a state or local tourism publication. Great job on exposre--there's plenty of color and detail in the fisherman's back. The reflections are gorgeous.

This is a beautiful image. Wonderful light and reflections of both the mountain and fisherman. It has a very peaceful feel to it. Breathtaking.
