The poachers

awesome silhouette, nice moods

These fishermen look too relaxed to be poachers.Nevertheless,they are well positioned in the frame and offer a nice reflection on the calm waters.The heavy mist lets in just enough of the background treeline and the ambiant amber tone create an excellent image.Bravo!

thanks :-)

Unfortunately they are poachers. This type of fishing is prohibited during that period in this lake.

This is another great silhouette with fog and mist; you have many excellent photographs from here.  It *might* be good if the person's head was not right at the line between water and land, which would have required that the camera be a bit higher, but I wouldn't know for sure without comparing.  Yes, they look too relaxed and too exposed to be poachers, but I've seen this in my former work with a state agency.

Lovely light in this image!
