This morning George Elder and I set off to shoot more for our Great Lakes Project – The Sweetwater Seas. We set off to document the fishermen at sunrise down along Montrose Beach and Promontory Pointe. There are always folks dipping a line in the water well before sunrise along that stretch of the lake. George talked to one fisherman who had a lot to say about the fishing over the years and the invasive species such as the Goby which he had caught a few of this morning. Those do not get throw back in the water but on shore and the pigeons come along and eat them. We wandered down to North Avenue Beach to capture people running, biking and playing along the beach. We ran into a group of young kids in what appeared to be a football workout on the beach with coaches. Plenty of bicyclists, runners and walkers. And then the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer passed by, by the thousands. And we both ran into folks we knew, including a friend of George’s who is in charge of the Avon Walks. These images are some of the still shots I took. I shoot both still and video but concentrate on stills as George is the expert filmmaker. Another great morning even though you have to get up before 4am!
