Fly-in fishing camp, Pybus Bay, Admiralty Island, Alaska, 2013

This fly-in fishing camp, known as Pybus Point Lodge, stands at the foot of Admiralty Island. It is miles from the nearest habitation, and has a fleet of small fishing boats and skiffs that are used to carry fisherman out daily in search of halibut and other fish. I am not a fisherman, but used the services of this camp for lodging, meals, and the use of a guide and a boat for my photographic needs. I made this image on the first night there. The sun has not yet set, but it casts warm light on the sandy beach. A single pier carries us out to the boathouse and its surrounding craft. A single fisherman stands reflected in the water, giving scale to the scene.
