Shew… it’s brilliant colour already gone…….! how sad I to have very strong feelings about big game hunting and fishing, what chance do they have?
As for Old man and the sea have read it tons it was given to me by my Dad many, many years ago…….. and a very treasured part of my book collection.
Cormack, I truly wish there were more people like you. Well done on this article, I was there and was absoultely appauled by our human nature and just waht we are doing to our beautiful planet just so that we can have a trophy on the mantlepiece. What a shame man has yet again shown that we are the biggest and worst enemy to all other living things.
What had happened that day is just appauling.
Thanks for the feedback Lance….it really is such a sad thing to see and I can’t understand what the fishing guys get out of it. That’s the part that really gets to me.
Having been on the dive I would not even walk five meters to look at this disgusting scene.
Now having seen your pic’s reminds me of people rubber-necking at a traffic accident, somethings wrong in the human mind.
