Header Compitition Season 2 #42 "Black & White"

The theme this week is by myself which is "Black & White". Mac, Gail's Man,Lanny, Dave,Sandy and I have a little contest to show a new theme header each week. We now post anytime before 4 PM EDT on Wednesday and start the voting after that.


This is the moon in all it's glory in Black and White.

Here is an early morning scene on the lake. Even though it is in color it still looks like Black and white at dawn.
My favorite fish is the Black Crappie. They look good in Black and White.
I chose to feature a photo of a sketch my brother-in-law Gene made called "The Hand of God". He is so talented as you can see. He has lung disease and at 50 has a little time left.

You can see what the others have shown at the above links.

Header Compitition Season 2 #41 "Romance"

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

This was a tough one for me. Every theme poses its own problems. I started out with some romance from nature with a pair of mallards traveling together.

The next shot is these canada Geese with the romance causing an increase in population.

I chose this phoot from today with the couple who went on the lake in a box the boy had made. I talked them off the lake because they had no life vest while in their box. There must be some real romance to go on the lake in a box.

You can see the others from the links above.

I really love this theme, I had some aquarium photos that I couldn't retrieve so I went with new lake shots. Here is a crappie from below the water line that hit on a curly tail jig.

Here are a deer and heron partially underwater. I love the heron reaction to the deer. 

Here are some fish below the water line in a little stream.

The header is a plant that grows Below the Water Line, water lilies.

I knew exactly what I do most every day. Did you guess FISH? This is done Spring, Summer and Fall. So here are some photos of fish, fishing and the lake sights. 

Here is one of our fellow fisherman, Erin the Great Blue Heron. He is guarding the lake and often chases other herons away.

Here is a nice Crappie caught by Tom the fishing Guy There were 10 more of the beauties.
Wally and a nice Yellow Perch, he has caught a big one on the last 5 trips to the lake. It's getting to be an every day experience.
This is a shore fisherman we see most every day.

So above is my header with an expanded look at the lake in the morning mist. I love to be on the water.
