Some of my BEST action photos

[onejacker]

Some of the recent posts' here have spurred me into releasing some of my best action photos from my times in the outdoors. I say releasing because, as Associate Editor for the monthly magazine Really Big Outdoors and Fields, I am contractually obligated to give the magazine first refusal on my photos. For some reason or another, the magazine did not pick up the following photos. Their loss is all I can say.

This first photo really gives me shivers just looking at it. Not more than two minutes after I snapped this baby, my friend on the bow, TB, tossed his castnet over a pair of mating bottlenose dolphins. I say his castnet because I was not about to take back the net after the dolphins got finished with it, and him for that matter. Can't you feel the electricity in the once-in-a-lifetime photograph?





Another mind blowing experience is chronicled in the following SINGLE photograph. Just as I snapped this dilly of a picture, my fishing buddy for the day broke off what was conservately estimated as a five pound shellcracker on the other side of the boat. It would have been an all-tackle world record. If only I had been able to slip the net under that brute, my ex-buddies life may have forever changed. How was I to know his incoherent screaming meant "get the net". When a true photographer like me gets caught up in the moment, words seem meaningless.





Anybody else have a great Monday?

Due to the under-whelming response to my silly thread, I have decided to post one more of my amazing photographs from the past. Thank me later.

While trolling off the coast of Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, we hooked the creature pictured below. To the untrained eye, it looks like a small "man in blue" up on top and headed away from the boat. Look closer. Its actually a black burro. You can clearly see his big floppy ears in the picture. Remember, this is off the coast of Mexico. They catch some weird shit down there. Gotta love Mexico.





Make it a great day.

AHHHHAA! I KNEW THE BURRO PIC WOULD BRING OUT A RESPONSE! I saved that little jewel of a snapshot for a tough situation, and my hard-fought thread dying without a single response was a tough enough spot.

Thanks, 'Hoo, for allowing me to post up in OUR world! I will be sure to mention you in my next article in Really Big Fields and Streams of Outdoor Life...
