Community Labor Day Party

During the last weekend I had photographed a community party for labor day. A small community but with some of the nicest people I've ever met. Ross (photo above) was very busy checking his traps for crabs up and down the private dock pulling out some very nice sized Chesapeake Blues. This one tried to escape to no avail.

These two were a bit comical in trying to get the dingy out to the traps. However they managed to get there without too much trouble. The weather was a bit questionable the entire day. As you can see in the above photo what looks like heavy fog is actually a good rain. We may have gotten a few drops here and there. The cloud cover did manage to bring about excellent conditions for photography. No harsh shadows.

Here (above) I tried to get everyone in the photo but not everyone was here. Sometimes it's strange that when a large group of people get together they break up into smaller group of 3 to 5 people and each group lasts about 15 minutes before a few leave and a few more arrive. If I had setup a time lapse you'd see that each group moves around and changes people. Maybe next time I'll do just that.

The food was awesome. Kudos to the Paella cook! Crabs, fish, chicken, paella, beer and wine and of course some very nice company - who could ask for more. How about another photo of the Paella.

Here you are. Hungry yet?

Thanks for looking and don't forget to comment.
Peace,
