Hucking Streamers, Fly Fishing - Holga...

I was fishing recently and was watching my buddy cast along the bank.
I loved the lines.
What do you think about this photograph?
Thanks,
Brian

Good picture I really like the black and white. It is kinda blurry but that really adds to it and does not take away

It's all part of the Holga aesthetic...
Perfection is overrated anyway!
Thanks for commenting.

Nice work Brian. You are about the best Holga shooter on the planet. You have got it down to a science. Great work here........

Yeah, this has to be one of the better Holga shots I've seen. Don't see too much Holga around here, it's really refreshing

Love it, there is something almost surreal yet very calming about this, you have caught a great pose in this one, the white dot on your friend's left elbow is a little distracting but easily resolved...am off to pick up some prints now....

There is too much emphasis on "perfection" in pictures these days .. and then you come along with your Holga to remind us that mood counts for more than anything!

One of these days I will get one too :aureola:

Cheers

I agree Brian. The technical "faults" of this photo is what makes it interesting and gives it a life of it's own. The posture of your friend throwing the line, the placement of him in the lower frame with the opposite shore line above works real well.
There is mood and action in this and it speaks.
It's a good one.

Just give in Mike! Get one now!
Your photography will thank you for it!

Great shot, Brian! Another Holga lesson from the master. I like the composition and high contrast. Since I know practically nothing about fly fishing, this shot also makes me wonder what the heck he's doing.
