Sunrise Fisherman
Posted by Jerry (Tampa, United States) on 6 March 2007 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.
I wasn't the only crazy guy up early Sunday morning! Here we have a dedicated fisherman waiting for the big one - the monster that pulls him over the rail, through the bay for 3 hours and finally out into the Gulf before tiring! He was still waiting when I left - maybe next week...
@AlainBadoual: merci!
@Pierre-Yves: Vous remercier mon ami !
@bluesequoia: Many thanks bluesequoia! Much appreciated!
@DTW: Thanks DTW!
