Fisherman

Stopped by Shinnecock inlet yesterday evening and meet a couple of anglers hoping to catch a few fish on the evening tide.

Surfcaster Montauk

Montauk Point is one of those magical places for me. I return several times a year with a camera  and photograph the lighthouse and local beaches. I never tire of the place. The Point or “The End” as locals call it, is also the surf fishing capital of the world. I rarely take photos of fisherman I would rather have a fishing rod in my hand. On this last trip with a camera a group of surfcasters were under the lighthouse and I captured this image. The light on the East end of the Long Island is special in the afternoon which makes this photo more interesting.
