I call him Fred

Went outside for lunch today and decided to photo The Fisherman, who stands at the end of a small island in the river behind the office. I call him 'Fred' (actually I just made that up - he's remained nameless all the years I've worked there, but Fred seems like a good name for him..)

I'm no angler, but it looks to me like someone has nicked Fred's rod. I suppose that might explain why he looks so unhappy.

Least you have your net Freddy-boy. Good luck with that...



I decided to 'HDR' this to bring out the interesting detail in 'Fred'. This is a handheld bracketted exposure (-1/0/+1EV) attempt at 180mm and I'm lucky it came out as it did really.
