Did you give him the picture? I mean the man at the beach? Did he actually catch anything?

No idea who he is, haven't spoken to him. One of those never to be repeated shots.

Location
This photo was taken at the beach where we normally go for our walk, it's about 5 miles from where I'm living.Time
It was late afternoon and I was hoping for a nice sunset but then the mist started rolling in.Lighting
I'm not a very technical photographer and like my photos as natural as possable. In this case I had my camera set on (P) program and I did adjust the exposure to get the fisherman more as a silhouette, the rest was done by nature itself.Equipment
Fujifilm Fine Pix S8400W Bridge camera.Inspiration
It was the whole setting with the setting sun, the mist and the lonely fisherman. I was wondering what was going on in his mind, does he have family, is he doing it to relax or maybe it is a way of getting food on the table.Editing
If I remember correctly it was only a bit of fine tuning on the exposure. I don't use Photoshop or any of those programmes only the editing tools available in Windows Photo Gallery.In my camera bag
What bag? It's me and my camera. :)Feedback
I think it's a matter of being at the right place at the right time, in other words you have to be at places and those places can even be your back garden, no need to travel to foreign countries. Explore what nature has given you there where you are at that moment.
