Gone Fishin'

Crab Traps on Boat Dock, James Island, SC  © Doug Hickok


To make their daily catch, fishermen are awake before the crack of dawn (as well as some photographers) and out on the water plying their trade. In the blue light of dawn, fishing boats have pulled out from the dock, but left behind is a stack of extra crab traps used for nabbing blue crab. The large net overhead deters pelicans and gulls from mobbing the deck. 


Hope you're able to nab a good weekend, even if you aren't fishing for crabs.

Photo Note: Here are some ideas for photography gifts this holiday season.
