Fly Fishing on the Lewis River

I haven't posted on this blog in a while, partly because I haven't been out and about lately photographing anything worthwhile. Instead, I've been mostly photographing my other artwork. Every once in a while I look through some of my older photos for images I might display; I've shown some in a couple of local photography shows. This photo was one that I showed in a nature-themed photography show on the University of Nebraska-Lincoln campus. I captured this image in late July, 2007, when I went camping with a friend in Yellowstone National Park. Not far from the south entrance, the Lewis River winds its way east underneath the main road and south toward the park's boundary. My friend and I wandered along the river to the west to see the short waterfalls nearby; then, as we returned to the road, I wandered across the road to get a better view of the two fly fishermen wading out in the stream. I really like the way the river winds its way into the distance. I also like the two logs that appear at the bottom of the image, pointing the viewer up into the photo. I highly recommend visiting Yellowstone National Park, if you get the chance.
