Fish Hatchery!

I love fishermen!!! I dunno, it's something about the blue water, the blue sky, and just a person resting peacefully... doing something they enjoy... for fun... for income... ( I kinda cheated... I have a pic of the day, but this is much better!) I will be returning in 3 weeks to get the lil eggs hatching! yay!

Oh and if you feel like being an editor... help me narrow this one down... I've got a couple of images that show the same thing!

Pep Bonet. I read an article that he wrote for On Campus the photography magazine for students. He talks about freelancing and doing projects with NGOs. It makes me want to freelance even more. I'm not sure that I even want to work for a paper anymore. I've very concern and interesting in people in health and social situations. I've have recently been looking through lists of NGOs and have found a few that I like, but then I run into the problem of, how do I even begin to ask someone if I can shoot for their NGO? Am I even remotely qualified? And a gazillion more questions... Oh and Bonet's work just gave me chills the whole time I was looking at them... it just makes you look at the scenes and people depicted and shows you how they really live and how life really is for them...

The hatchery pulled in all their nets today and started to strip the Walleye fish of their eggs and sperms to start the hatching process at the Oneida Lake hatchery.
