A Hefty Cast

It's been a while since I wandered around India Point at lunch, so that's where I decided to head today. There were about a dozen people fishing off the docks but nobody was having any success. This gentleman is fishing for stripers while his girlfriend plays spectator. She said it was her first time going with him to fish since she hates touching anything to do with the sport. She said it's "boring as hell, but you have to support your man." It will be interesting to see if that support extends to gutting,, scaling, and cooking a 20 pound fish should he manage to land a keeper. Somehow, I think he'll be on his own if that happens.
Post processing started with a neutral filter in Topaz B&W FX. I adjusted color sensitivity sliders, adaptive exposure, regions, contrast, brightness, boost black, and details. A levels adjustment was added in PSE.
