FAA WATERCOLOR MARK DOES NOT APPEAR ON FINAL SALES
While out fishing on a beautiful weekday in May two weeks ago, the fishing boat that my friends and I had chartered left the docks in Oceanside, New York for some stripe bass and blue fishing. The captain kept showing fish on his radar and we kept chasing after them. The next thing we realized we were down the whole coast of Long Island and into Jersey waters on the north side of the Verrazano Bridge. While I was taken a photo of a friend of mine fishing I was lucky enough to get him and the great blue sky we had that day along with Verrazano Bridge in the background. As we began to drift the sky was a beautiful light blue color and the water was a dark blue color with some wakes beginning to rise and hit into the boat. I went as far back as I could to capture the whole shot of the Verrazano Bridge without falling out of the boat as I wanted to capture the bridge touching the Brooklyn and Staten Island sides but the boat was a little to close and catching fish was the priority that day.
