Header Competition Season 2 # 22 "Friends"

The theme this week is by Mac and is "Friends"    Mac, Gail's ManLanny, Dave and I have a little contest to show a new theme header each week. We now post anytime before 4 PM EDT and start the voting after that.

Darla, Martha and Tom W are on a break. Come back as soon as you are able my friends.

This is about friends and I made a new one this year. His name is Wally and we fished Lake Hodgson in our own boats. We often fished the same area and I learned much from him. It caused me to change some tactics and I had my best year fishing. The morning moon was just setting in the western sky.

He started to come out earlier in the morning because of the fish I had caught before he hit the water.
He caught this nice Northern Pike during the Summer.
We ended up fishing together in his boat after I had put mine to bed late in the season. These are a few nice Yellow Perch from a day of fishing.
What I decided to show was a photo from Lake Hodgson of Wally in his boat. I love reflections on the water.


You can see what the others have to show from the above links.

I do hope you gave your new friend a copy of your header! It should be turned into a painting.

It looks as if you have made a good friend on the lake. You have also made a great header, although I like the other pictures Wally in his boat as well.

A wonderful series, Tom. The one you selected for the header really captures the mood of the moment and the lighting quality is superb.
