This was last summer fishing with my father on Sheridan Lake, Idaho. It was way dark and was shot as a silhouette. It was the only light I had :)

Thought I would share to see what you all think. Some folks have liked it and some say it's to dark.

What do you all think?


Just was thinking of hitting the water again--I cannot wait! :)

That color gradient makes the shot for me. You caught a great moment with your dad.

Thanks for all the kind words/comments on the photo. I was thinking I had a decent shot. I always wondered after being told some negative comments on another forum. After having looked and relooked at all your photos that you guys have on your websites. It means alot to have some nice comments from some really great shooters.

I think I found a home :)

thanks again guys

Lynn
