… the Newfie Neighbours shoulder
Funny thing about this shot is when I took it none of us knew about the fish UNTIL just after I took the picture .. than all 3 of us heard this big SPLASH. Rotten neighbour had got into the lake before us…so I was taking a picture. Well, what a picture ;-)
I took a photo up in the Whitsunday Islands a few years ago and when I looked at it later, there was a whale breaching in the distance. Never saw it when I took the photo!

It’s amazing when it happens. It is such a delight to have CAUGHT something in such a pure moment, especially unexpected.

Awesome photo! What are the chances? Like a little miracle that you couldn’t plan. That fish wanted to be immortalised and he manifested it :)

Thank you. Our neighbour (in the picture) was so tickled by that shot. We all were. He definitely has become a very well known fish. A lucky fish too…all the old guys that would have known how to catch him are either too old or sick to go out and try. ;-)

How funny. An old soul fish who succeeded. I wonder if all the younger fish learn from it.

I know, eh? ;-) so totally random to…just clicked the button at the right time…Tim yells “DID YA GET IT”? I’m like get what….he looks at my like I’m nuts and says “THE FISH” “YOU WERE LOOKING RIGHT AT IT”….he’s yelling this in my ear…like I’m a deaf, dumb mute or something. Men and their fish. You’d think I’d took a picture of a magical creature or something.

Is that a fish on the upper right side of the first photo?

Yes it is…we’re not sure what sort of fish…but Yup…a fish…I caught him JUST as he was breaking the surface…Tim actually saw him jump. I just happen to “snap” the lens just at the right time. :)

Oh, I know, it is still often the topic of many a conversation amongst our Newfie Neigbhours friends…His “fish tale”…. AND the lucky stinker got a picture to boot…great for his “squeeze box” playing Newfie tales round the campfire nights.
