Mom and Daughter Fishing

I saw this young Mother teaching her small daughter how to fish. I thought

is was a touching and sentimental moment that is played out everyday as

parents pass on knowledge to their children.

i agree, and you've captured it well

Thanks Mary, I was concerned about the little bit of softness that I added to hopefully enhance the sentimental aspect, so I am glad you liked it. Regards...LJ

Family moments like these are touching. I like the B&W touch as well.

Lovely scene, Lesa. A delight of composition, silhouettes and atmosphere. Excellent photograph! Congrats!

Hi Lesa. Good shot. Wait till she gets a big catfish on there, you might have to help with the net. Compositionally I like how the derricks in the background have a fishing-like look to them.

Dave, I was more worried about the toddler falling off the ledge there (about 3 foot drop) than if she was actually going to catch anything besides sea weed. I watched the duo for quite a few minutes and just suddenly realized that it was a timeless image in front of me. So as the sun faded behind the Mobile skyline and the lights of the shipbuilders began to show up, I took the shot. Thanks for stopping by. Regards...LJ

Great eye for picture "stories" as usual Lesa, and nicely executed in BW.
