Hello ALL !!
Here is a little photo collage from last Nov I have had in my files that I almost didn't put up ...
but,...
The experiance was so unique and surreal that I thought I have have to share it! .
Last Nov we took this little Day trip to Hoover Dam area and veered off a path to find this little dock at Lake mead. They have this docking area where the fish are like 5-20 pounds and you can bend over the dock and actually hand feed them like Dogs ( Mike calls these fish suckers . lol) My Aunt and my Mom had to leave so I didn't have alot of time for taking pictures but I managed to get these in this little collage. THey WERE SO HUGE !! OMG That one single fish was so big there LOL!! I thought he was going to eat my camera ( or bite my hand off )I was only like 2 inches away !! YOu can even pet them...haha!
I had never before had such a close encounter with fish that were not caught or behind glass...
Anyways here are some shots I took that day with my pocket cam . Chrissy -my daughter -is in the lower right hand corner you can see how big the fish are next to her she is feeding them popcorn!!. SO many of them come up at once at you when you have food that it is quite overwhelming it made me laugh so much !! (I was going to put just the fish shot up but thought it would be better if you could see where it was shot at !!)
Thanks for all your time and comments!
((( BIG HUGS )))

They were saying the other day that it may not be long until this lake is dried up. That is So bad, because your photos of it make it look some lovely and peaceful around there!!!

Wow, those are big suckers! The mouths are awesome. Amazing capture of the big beggars hankering for a handout. Fine POV, clarity and colors in this collage, Kimmie. Incidentally, koi carp will also come up to a dock or shoreline to be fed and petted.

Reminds me of the fish at one of the local zoos that you can feed. They are big like that and as soon as someone tosses some food in the water a feeding frenzy occurs.

We call them Leather carp here in the UK, and it costs me alot of pounds to fish for them, I can spend three to four days camped out just hoping for one like these, they can live to fifty years old and weigh in at 50 lbs :)AND I have caught them on Butterkissed popcorn :)))...Fantastic display of pics..I bet your daughter was happy?

Very nice collage, nice captures, nicely aranged and a very curious subject matter, indeed, not something you see everyday. I like it very much especially for that reason.
