123 Go Fish


This was so interesting to watch this man prepare to go ice fishing. While the sun was out and the sky was a beautiful blue the temperature was a balmy 7 degrees F!! I took these shots while standing outside but I took a lot of shots sitting in my warm car!! (24 of 365)

    Really cool images, Mary Lou! Funny you posted these today - my son & I saw some teenagers out on a pond trying to fish (it is cold today, but yesterday it was 58 degrees) - not sure if this was the smartest thing they could be doing! Great pictures!

    You'll notice that he has a bare head while he is unloading his vehicle. Then he has a cap on in the other shots. Good "story" photos.

    And I thought PHOTOGRAPHY was an addiction! Fishing in 7ยบ temperatures--that's just nuts!

    (Great shots--of a crazy man!)

    I'm not sure what amazes me more--the man outside fishsing in those temperatures or you outside with your camera in those temperatures!

    Nice series of shots!

    Nice little series, Mary Lou. Kudos for sitting the car with a long lens. Shall we label you as paparazzi?

    Mary Lou, Nice series of pictures. I remember doing this as a kids. Only we hauled our ice shanty onto the river as soon as the ice was thick enough and then could sit inside it with a camping heater and hot chocolate

    Ice fishing is fun! Did it a lot with my grandfather when I was a child. We always had lunch with us, sandwiches and hot chocolate.
    Wonderful pictures! :)
