Portraits of Fishermen
David Duggan is the nephew of Prospect's last remaining commercial fisherman, Joe Duggan. The two go out together now that Joe's wife has called it a day. David also does set work for the movies when a movie happens along, which in case you haven't noticed hasn't been happening much recently. I took this portrait of David inside Joe's stage, where the two were relaxing after a morning's work on the water. Usually I only go over to buy lobster from Joe. This day I just felt like a chat. The light was real nice so I took their pictures while we were talking. Two more easygoing gentlemen I can't remember having met hereabouts.
