A young lady visiting a nature park indulges her inner child by using a slender stick to entice one of the many crawdads in the pond to take hold with a pincer.
My Tennessee upbringing prohibits me from referring to crawdads by their more commonly known name, "crayfish".

Very nice; the halo around the woman works well. Since you're moving back in time, technologically speaking, you might want to have a look at the camera in the website url.

@Dan: Thanks, Dan. The halo was unintentional and I saw no way of getting rid of it.
The farthest I've moved back in time so far is about 1930 or thereabouts. I just finished up the first roll through a Kodak box brownie from that era. Shoots big 6x9 cm images on medium format (120) film. Should have the roll back in a few days. Most of my other cameras are from the early 50s to early 70s.
LOL Crawdads!!! I always get odd looks when I say that...or the other name I use crawdaddies, always good eatin' too : )

We said "crawdads" in California, too.
