keept it simple

I asked the guy if it was alright if I took some shots of him fishing and he said "sure" (I explained I would keep them as siholuettes since I didn't know him) :) I Kind of feel like this goes well with fathersday which is this weekend (and since I got my dad a fish-finder it just felt like the right shot to submit -hope it does alright; but don't really care either way!) i'm sure someone will comment on what he is standing on -- its the corner of a wall- and I rather like how it leads your eyes into the center rather than being flat :) so no I wouldn't change that-- i actually like everything about the shot except the slight feel of pixalation when its smushed down to fit DPC standards :) :-D -

and all those 2's and 3's and 4's are why I didn't put image into this challenge instead :) my love for it remains untarnished unruined :P :)

OK dont hate me but...I did prefer the orange version

Having said that I have to say that I thought this met the challenge in spades, great composition, super high contrast and the hint of blue in the sky shows that this is not just another black and white shot (and so therefore is technically harder to deliver)

Forget the voters, this is a great shot and definitely one to be proud of
