Near the lake, sort of?

I haven't been fishing in a while due to the weather, but have been near a lake. Just completed this treasured map of Lewis Smith Lake in Alabama. It's a large 2 feet x 4 feet and printed on canvas.
My goal is for the map to almost glow.

I hide things in the waters of the river, lake or bay.

On canvas prints, I come back and hand paint the waterfowl to make them pop and to appear as if they float over the map. I just noticed in this photo that if you look closely you may find something swimming in the water.

This is what I refer to as the Red Ruby Meridian, my seal. It indicates a treasured map. Hopefully my maps will become a family heirloom bringing back those golden memories of that special river, lake or bay. See more at www.LeoLakes.com

  1. Is the canoe part of the picture or sitting on it?

  2. Mark, that's a small canoe sitting on the map. I put it in to add interest to the photo. Also, I just notice that in the photo with the canadian goose there's something swimming up stream in the corner of the picture.
