Description
FAA WATERCOLOR MARK DOES NOT APPEAR ON FINAL SALES
After leaving Oceanside, New York located on Long Island on a charter fishing boat the day after Christmas to fish for Blackfish in New Jersey waters in 25 degree water, I slipped into the cabin and turned to see one of the Fisherman almost frozen waiting for that first hit to happen and break the ice for a good day of fishing. The ocean was rough and any attempt to capture a level horizon as the waves were rocking the fishing boat every which way that day was impossible. We hung in there and came home with our limit of fish.

A true fisherman (or woman) will endure heat or cold to enjoy a day on the water! Nice capture!

I love the image - that man and the angle of the water. The sun is so poetic too! V

Thank you Nekoda for your compliment and vote I appreciate it, I like this photo because it shows how the boat was getting tossed from one side to the other that is an angle I could not come up with
