If your'e calling this overexposed then you need to make an adjustment to your monitor. My eyes don't see it overexposed nor does the histogram. Paul Alters

Okay, I guess it stays. Yes, the guy is casting a net in downtown Jacksonville. He's standing under a bridge in the morning. The light is hittng him but not the water. It's a little overexposed.

What Mr. Puff said...but I also have some questions as to....even vaguely being a street scene....let the voters decide. Best Wishes, Traveller

It's a cast net for bait, shrimp, etc. I watched my grandfather fish this way for many years. It's a splendid image, Bruce, really wonderful. -Michael

I think it's a bait fisherman (or something like that) getting set to throw out his net. Very nice shot, but I'm curious about the source of the even lighting.

Is it a fishing net? Marvelous shot, anyway. Regards, Michael

Bruce, this has me quite perplexed. Maybe I'm must tired after a long couple of days out or town and a late day drive home, but I cannot tell what he is winding up to do except maybe a giant wedding veil. (Wild guess :-)) -tv
