Me trying to get photos of a school of rainbow trout from on top of the water
One of my unsuccessful attempts of photographing the school of rainbow's
Success! This is the image that ran with the story in the next days paper
I was working on a recent assignment with News Herald reporter James Proffitt doing a story about construction at the Castalia State Fish Hatchery. Construction was just getting underway and the photos I was getting were kind of boring. James and I decided we'd get something more exciting by duck taping a waterproof point-n-shoot style camera to a 6-foot long pvc pipe. By setting the camera on timer that gave me just enough time to push the button and slow dip the camera into a school of Rainbow Trout in the Cold Creek flowing through the grounds of the fish hatchery. It took several tries and a little luck but we were able to get a nice frame that ran in the paper along with Proffitt's story.
A special thanks to News Herald reporter James Proffitt who took the photos of me as I was taking the photos of the rainbow trout
