    Zach it’s about 50/50 fish/stuff so I wasn’t sure where to put it. Move it wherever you want it.  

    We spent the weekend at TroutWags cabin last weekend and I thought I’d share a few of the photos.

    Here’s the look my dog Drake gave me when I told him he wasn’t going…

    Gaining altitude

    After 13 miles on the Dragons back we were all glad to see civilization. I don’t know what Dam this was but it was just after the dragon. The stars at this location were absolutely breathtaking.

    Chief Hunting Bear. He said earlier that morning his name was Chief Freezing Bear.

    A shot with my new Minolta 70-210 F4 lens AKA “the beercan”.

    My monster Rainbow.

    Drake being glad we came back for him.

    John you have a wonderful little piece of heaven up there. Thank you so much for sharing it with my family and me!

    Thanks it’s a big learning curve from a point and shoot. Sometimes I feel like I take one step forward and two steps back. Maybe one day it’ll click and I’ll finally have it.
    I had no idea how much money it took to feed this obsession…

    Drake’s getting big all right. Just last night we caught him trying to give it to a little poodle we’re watching. I was cheering him on but my wife was not so understanding..

    Question to the Camera guys. On the Dam photo if you look hard you can see a blue spot. Some of the others had several blue spots in them. I’m assuming they were light from the stars behind the camera because I didn’t cover the viewfinder.

    Very warm photos! Mike 😀 I like it!

    about the blue triangle dots.

    I think it’s less likely to be “star light” from the back (viewfinder), because the star light is so weak, usually take one or two hours exposure to let them “kick in”… Instead, I think the blue dots might came from the front

    Wonderful pictures Mike. Gotta love lab pups. 🙂 They are such wonderful dogs thru their life. The picture of the Brown, I really like this one. I love the reel sitting just below the water surface and all the water reflection over it, plus, well it’s a trout. Favorite things and all that. 🙂
