A brave soul is he. No shelter and the cold wind blowing from behind him. I had been watching him in this crouched position for about twenty minutes. That is something I could never do.

He sure is brave, to sit like that for twenty minutes is a miracle, I would have fallen over after a few minutes. Has he caught one?
ReplyDeleteI'm freezing just looking at him Andy.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful image!
ReplyDeleteDon't think I'd be able to get up after crouching that long
ReplyDeleteHe really has to be a dedicated fisherman to do this. He has be considerably younger than I am to crouch like that for very long.
ReplyDeleteAquí estamos a 17 grados..vaya frio..un abrazo desde Murcia...
ReplyDeleteI've noticed that the ice fishermen around here carry their stuff in 5 gallon plastic buckets which then becomes a seat. This is too cold for me, and where's the beer?
ReplyDeleteNot sure "brave" is the word. Passionate? Obsessed? Nuts?
ReplyDeleteLooks very cold! Great shot.
ReplyDeleteNot for me either, but you know, I've watched many an ice fisher-person, and they seem so at peace while they're out there, that it almost makes me want to try it. Not this past winter though!!
ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful image!
Brrrrrrr. Maybe he frozen in place;)
ReplyDeleteI think you have to grow up doing this to find it appealing. And be very accustomed to the kind of cold weather you're enduring. This is a great shot, though. You really captured his stillness and concentration, a sort of meditative peacefulness.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't even be out there taking his pic, Andy!
ReplyDeleteI couldn't either, but that's one thing that I don't regret not being able to do AT ALL! It's a great portrait...(I bet the guy would love to have a copy of it!)
ReplyDeleteMaybe frozen in that position! Yikes!
ReplyDeleteMost people I know don't have knees that would get them up after spending any time like this.
ReplyDeleteFar more fortitude than I would have!
ReplyDeleteI'm anxious to try it.. though preferably from within a hut. Probably next winter.
