Must be some serious halibut fishing when you have to wear hunters orange and a hard hat.  Even a radio so you can call the Gordon's fisherman and tell him to kiss your butt!

I didn't want to offend anyone and will send the prize to one of the guys in the photo if my photo happened to win. Unfortunately I do need to upgrade my camera so I get better quality photos. Mostly it's just fun entering the diffferent contests. :tup:

dip,
That's a great photo! Thanks for posting it. :) Sadly, it will not be eligible for the contest because this month is Turkeys or Fishing. Please feel free to submit it at a later date when it fits the Contest Subject Matter.

Bantams,
I apologize for my mistake of closing the contest early! I screwed up on the date due to a lot of things on my mind. I am going to insert your photo into the contest in hopes that everyone will understand. That way you will have a chance to win.

This is Bantams Entry into the contest that I mistakenly closed early:

I was hoping I would be able to submit this photo, but I see now the contest is closed. 
Anyway, here's a Rio Grande hen I photographed this spring in Hawaii.

I felt that it was my mistake, so we should be fair and let it be entered!
