David(NH) Posted November 7, 2008 Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 The photo on the cover of the rolling stone, (Z's new book) is a photo I took of my fishing buddy MDM sporting one of our fine boulder field brutes that couldn't resist the RM Smith swimmer. I'm going to miss those nights we spent hunting those beautiful fish. Hate winter but love my coastline and fishing spots enough to tolerate it.

raybliu Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 Congrats to David & MDM for having your photo memorialized in a front cover on a book that is bound to be popular among the surf casters. Congrats to Z for the new book too. Can't wait to read it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim sylvester Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 nice pic dave they should have photoshopped terry's lanyard so that it's not wrapped around the seat of the Z must have been a yard sale after he landed the fish....pliers over there...rod over here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David(NH) Posted November 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 You get a free copy for providing the cover?? Nice shot. Nope! Don't want one either. I rather Z make some money for his hard work than give me something for nothing. After all, I get to Toot my horn as the photographer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Alberto Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 Hello David.... I just wanted to say great shot and MDM did a great job catching that beauty! Definitely a well deserved cover shot! Oh... and let's not forget the background shot too... Zeno eyes is getting better everyday. If I didn't know better.... He got an award for that picture too. Hello Jim... In regards to the retouching comment.... that was the least of the problem - I don't think you have any idea how much retouching was done on the cover while combining both images together and adding a background and trying to color balance the typography.

David(NH) Posted November 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 Sorry Al, didn't mean to take all the credit here. All your work on blending these photos must have been a real pain. It looks great though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
