Daily Wanderings by Bob Israel
Fisherman's Morning
Posted by Bob Israel (Brookfield, WI, United States) on 18 June 2007 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.
One of my favorite images. The morning started clear when all of a sudden the fog began to roll in. Moments after taking this photo, the fisherman disappeared into the morning fog.

It looks live. It looks like I am looking out a window and I could call out to these people. The water in the foreground is crisp; the fishermen are so clear, you can see their poles, you can tell what make of boat it is; you can even see the ripple rings where their lines meet the water!!!! Man! The water in the background is sharp and glistening; you can make out land off in the distance; and then that eerie sky. If it weren't for the water below, you would think you were looking at a seering sun blazing in a haze of heat in a desert. and the whole mood would be entirely the opposite. I just love everything about this picture. You have captured it all. This is a picture of a Haven of Tranquility!

It is true, it took my breath as I scrolled down and saw the boat which is so sharp and clear, and the color is wonderful. I love this image! I'm looking forward to some more images from you. Welcome!

This shot makes me want to take a deeep breath. The smell of fresh air in the morning. Not sure what it smells like in the middle of the sea but forest, yes.
