On a whim, I drove through Lincoln Woods State Park to see if there was anything particularly photogenic happening. I stumbled upon this scene of a fisherman paddling in and being assisted out of his kayak by his son. It was a successful day for him. When I asked if he'd had any luck, he proudly displayed two good-sized rainbow trout that would make fine filets.

Post processing started with a classic filter in Topaz B&W FX. I adjusted color sensitivity sliders, adaptive exposure, regions, contrast, and protect highlights. A levels adjustment was added in PSE.
