When I went to the tranquil lake of Buhi in Camarines Sur a year ago, one of the most interesting subjects I captured from the place was the boy with a pink umbrella, who is fishing, on the photo. My observations on what he was doing that time made me conclude that this week’s photo challenge has a lot to say about bait fishing because it entails avalanche of WAITING.

Oh, I like this for “waiting” … perfect. I’ve fished myself, and waiting is the magic word.
Peace,
Siggi in Downeast Maine
I did check your entry and I’m glad I did. The sweet “meow” of that pretty cute cat is truly something to look forward to at your home.
Love the colours in this shot — his umbrella is perfect!
Yes, Jo. The umbrella is actually very intriguing, which makes the whole shot more intresting. Hehe …
It does – but I also love the way the opposite bank just slices though the blue with it’s slash of green/yellow vividness — this would look fabulous hanging on a wall.
That’s a wonderful idea, Jo. I just noted that. Thank you so much!!!
Waiting for the fish, you got one at last?
YES!!! Thank you for taking the bait.
Fishing with bait definitely involves a lot of waiting… waiting for the fish to bite. Love the pink umbrella. Very good entry!
Hence, my hyperbole: an avalanche of waiting.
Sonny boy, I remember this.
I agree ” this week’s photo challenge has a lot to say about bait fishing because it involves an avalanche of WAITING.”.. So this boy made it to this week’s challenge, haha
Yup! He’s one lucky boy — with a pink umbrella. Let’s not forget that!
Let’s not forget that – cheers to that boy in pink umbrella though, it started to look like purple or lavender but you were there so I need not argue further…
I should have not adjusted the contrast. Sigh … Anyway, thanks for pointing that out.
You’re welcome. I love the color combination you have here but not on tshirts, right? haha
Yeah, NOT on t-shirts!
Nice, Sony, another great interpretation for this week theme
Salamat, Jake (without the “sir”)! I have seen your entry and I must say you have a greater interpretation.
Sony, beautiful and perfect picture for “waiting”! Gorgeous colors and the pink umbrella is just the coolest-I think it almost steals the show. Thank you so much for the link back to my blog, so kind of you.
Thank you more!!! That coming from a pro sure is a compliment. The pink umbrella is all over the place now. Hehe …
What a nice photo. I want to start fishing. It looks so fun.
Indeed, my friend!
p.s.
Don’t forget your pink umbrella, okay?
Waiting in pink umbrella, albeit masculinity, is real waiting.
It’s like saying, “Tough guys, wear pink.” I used to have a shirt with a graffiti like that. Salamat, Jon!
This is wonderful picture. Nice work. The colors makes it extra special. And really cool interpretation. Thanks for the pingback Sony.
You are always welcome, Nandini. Shukriya!
Very nice post.
Thank you very much!
This is one of my favorite photos. I believe it was featured in one of your post. The boy with the pink umbrella is one unforgettable subject. Fishing is both fun and a great way to relax, gather your thoughts while waiting for healthy meal. Thanks for sharing your life’s adventures with us. God bless you and your family always.
