In light of the current events unfolding in Haiti blogging about anything seems a bit trite to me this morning, but alas - something must go up...

Here I sit, shoulders slouched in front of my computer screen shell shocked by the the images coming in from every news and media outlet on the planet. Not unlike Mr. Merwin at the Honest Angler blog, I feel helpless and a bit depressed.

I figure we all need something a little inspiring today. At least I do. So here's my attempt for the FlyTalk crowd.  90 original fly fishing paintings from nine artists in a minute and a half. A nice break from the carnage I'm sure that has been bombarding your senses these past couple of days.

Have a good weekend.

There's some real masterpieces in there. A few looked like they might have been PAINTED in 90 seconds, but alot of them were awesome.
