Description
Taken of a fisherman trying his hand at coaxing fish from the Ohio River. I sat and talked with him for almost 3 hours and the only thing he managed was catching several branches and tufts of grass.

Originality Technique ImpactNow I love a good sunset and this is really no exception. The colours in this piece are beautiful.
If the fisherman hadn't been there I'd have probably suggested using a long exposure.. but then it wouldn't be called 'Silhouetted Fisherman'
Did you use any filters? If not then perhaps a strong ND grad across the sky and parts of the water would reduce a little of the over exposure of the sun's reflection towards horizon.
Talking of the horizon, perhaps it could do with a little straightening up and maybe clone out whatever it is that's floating around in the left corner of the lake <img src="e.deviantart.com/emoticons/g/g…" width="17" height="15" alt="
