 The elderly fisherman patiently waited while I was shooting photos of the Fletcher Boat House. When I realized he was waiting for "his fishing spot" I backed off. I was putting my gear together when I realized HE was the photo opportunity.

Lot's of fishing people in this challenge. Not as many as sunsets but still. Your guy looks good.

Love the water. Almost looks like looking down on a cloudbank from atop a mountain.
Composition is great too!
Love the rod pointing neatly into the corner.
Good luck with this one!
