ON THE FALLING TIDE

Anthony, I've watched your films, and you do an awesome job. I love the passion behind this film. Even though I've never hunted Great South Bay, I look forward to buying a copy. I also love how George continues the legacy of his area. I admire his diligence and conservation. "The easy way is never the right way."

Thank You Robert, Much Appreciated. I think this upcoming project will be even more impressive to the audience. Looking forward to it's release. George is truly one of a kind
 
Good morning, Anthony~

The rest of this audience has not seen all the amazing footage and images that I have - the excitement is indeed building!

You will note that I finally corrected the title here to ON THE FALLING TIDE....

I just sent you another batch of stills - thanks to Rich Stavdal, they show the William Floyd Estate (aka the Mastic Shooting Club) for our segment on the importance of the large shooting clubs and estates to LI Black Duck populations "back in the day".

Project Complete!
After many numerous hours behind the camera, on the boats, in the blinds and having the privilege to meet some of the most influential people I have personally met with the guide of both Craig Kessler and Steve Sanford himself it is with great accomplishment I share a look at some of the "Behind The Scenes" Images with you all.

Can't wait for the release! This type of preservation and documentation is especially valuable to those of us that have lost our hunting partners over time. This video will certainly also compliment the sights and smells of the Tuckerton Seaport & Baymen's Museum which draws many of us back for reflection. Would love to see more tackle these types of projects.

Man, I can practically taste it!

I just ordered the banner for our March 4 Show's "static" exhibit. The finish line is getting closer - but lots to do over the next month.

Thanks for all of your fine work!

Sir, wonderful images. Brings back the fondest memories! I gunned with Bud on the black duck. And have a few photos. Bud "held court" on her. It was a privilege to Gun with him. Thank you. John

I do not recognize the open book. In the photo, it is held by George Combs III. I will track it down.

And, I will put your name on The List for the ON THE FALLING TIDE DVD.

All the best,

SJS

 
Steve,

That's Dick Richardson with the book open not GW. Right before we did his interview.

Not sure on exact book i'll look through the footage

Will you guys have copies for sale at the show? Going to try and make it down. Are you doing an actual premier or just going to have it playing at table? Curios if I should plan my trip around a certain time.
 
James~

Yes, we will have copies of FALLING TIDE for sale at the Show. The DVD will be playing on 2 monitors all day. A formal presentation to our 7 "movie stars" will be at noon.

Hope to see you there!

Thank you Steve. That's what I wanted to hear. I'm looking forward to making it out there and picking up a copy. Will try and make it around noon.
 
To tell you how small a world it is, I'm at a work conference in orlando and dang it if the guy across from me at lunch is from connecticut and was telling me all about this. He will be attending y'alls show.
