Wizard Falls Fish Hatchery - Fish in the Settling Pond

These are some shots I had kind of forgot about. I took them about 8 years ago at the Wizard Falls Fish Hatchery on the Metolius River in Central Oregon. There is a nice platform for viewing the fish and as you will see there were plenty to be seen. 🙂

shc-6.JPGThere was quite a glare/haze from the surface of the water so I had to do some Lightroom post processing to bring out the fish a little better. I probably need to make a return trip and see if my photography skills have improved enough to get better raw shots.

This river is incredible. It looks like an interdimensional rift is about to open down the middle
