L.E.N.S. Photo Challenge: {live} in the moment

 


Inshore fishing off the coast of Destin, Florida, yesterday afternoon. 

About 5 minutes later...


Biggest catch of the day!  (So big, we had to release him).
20+ lb. Redfish
So happy this one did not get away. :)

Credit goes to my husband, Scott, the photograper of this moment.

    How odd that we posted similar red fish stories. What would be even odder? If it was the same poor tortured fish, as our's was thrown back, too!
