Throwback Thursday - Another Definition of "Throwback"

6/4/2015

It’s Throwback Thursday, but the timing couldn’t be better for a different kind of “throwback”.

Meet our son, Brian, whose been a champ at getting me into fly-fishing for trout in the mountains of Georgia. Wait, there’s a connection to Throwback Thursday.

For the last three days, it’s been throwback Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday! Whether small or large enough for dinner, we threw them all back. So, while this isn’t the normal definition of an image for Throwback Thursday, it’s right on the money for photography.

I had the LUMIX FZ1000 with me and loved the results. While I normally wouldn’t recommend taking a camera like this fly-fishing, especially when walking in the river in your waders with your gear, the 25-400 Leica lens, and 4K video is so versatile.

Wishing everybody a terrific Throwback Thursday from the North Georgia Mountains. As always on TT, take a few minutes just to enjoy your images from the past. That old statement about “you can never go back” just isn’t true, and it’s thanks to all of us in the photographic industry.

You can go back!
