The Chinese Fisherman

[mark greenhill]

While waiting for Sparky to wire something into my car,
I found myself wandering the banks of the Tamar in search of a subject
when I came upon a fisherman and wondered what kind of fish he was catching ...

... I didn't have to wait long to find out.

The sequence was shot with an Olympus E3 at 300mm (600mm equiv.) from a range of about 50 yards.

Steve and Ian,
I have just checked the exif data and realised that these were shot at 125mm (250mm Equiv.) Shot with Olympus 70-300mm (140-600 Equiv.)
Thanks for looking and please forgive the misinformation. :bang:

Doesn't look like any part of the Tamar I know.
