As summer is going to be soon a faded memory, I wanted to edit some of my favorite photos from our trip to the midwest before they get buried in the dark abyss of my hard drive. My twelve year old got to go fishing with grandpa to this beautiful lake close to where they live out in the country. What made this special is that my father-in-law is a charter member of this conservation club and was instrumental in helping create it. My husband and his younger brother used to go there as kids and I shared an old photo with the story in my instagram feed here. Grandpa showed him how to present the bait, and cast the fishing rod out in the lake. They caught one little fish and released him back in the lake in the end.

These are a mix of film on the Contax 645 with Kodak Portra scanned by State Film Lab and digital photos.
