Gone fishing
I saw this little girl fishing in my pond (it's actually the community pond, but I pretend it is mine ;-). Very patient...very still.

Yes the pond is yours Isabella, please tell the Mayor of Naples that i said so. i can send 50 cents as adavnce payment, i'll pay the rest in 2020 along with the ice cream.
I count three alligators in this photo....two of them right off shore!!!
A lovely photo.
Beautiful as usual! By the way Isabella thanks for leaving comments over at Toruń DP...I have replied (twice!) to them! Check them out! G
She is a good one and made it many times,I guess.Your landscape is like a dream. Happy dreaming, Isabella!

Isabella in wonderland.. inviting colours!
The little girl doesn't look real - that part of the photo looks like a painting.
Serenity for sure.
Have a great Thursday!
A beautiful and colorful photograph. If I lived there I would be concerned for the small child's welfare. Is there any chance of an alligator in the lake? Wow. It would bother me.
Beautiful pond - looks like a small lake to me!
Isabella, what is that tree that has a few fronds hanging down with a white flower and pea-like pods? Fascinating.
Your quote fits the photo beautifully. Well-chosen, Isabella--both photo and Mr. Irving.
For a little moment, this pond is our pond too...When I was a little girl, i liked to fish (in the sea), it was easy to catch some beautiful fishs kind enough to swallow my poor worm on a rusty hook...I am not sure it could work today...
I love your pond! This is a very sweet picture.
wow. you live surrounded by beautiful colors everywhere!

I just sent a private email to you -- check it hasn't been diverted to a spam folder!
Thanks Gerald - will do!
Jilly - that's a wild tamarind tree. Those small while flowers are very sweet smelling...
Alice - today's fish are more spoiled and clever, they would never fall for a rusty hook ;-)
Abe - there's always a chance for an alligator, but this pond is on a golfcourse and they don't like to hang out with the golfers ;-)
Thanks for the ice-cream, Rauf!!! It is very hot here today...
Composition is great here with these flowers in the foreground and is the final touch.
Never managed to fish - can't stay still for 2 minutes!
Beautiful spot to go fishing. I must say that I'm a bit jealous, I haven't been fishing yet this spring!
I also just noticed that small lawn chair nest to the little girl; how adorable!
What a lovely place to go fishing.
Beautiful photo and I like the quote..

Stunning. Florida at it's beautiful best. The little girl in there fishing is the perfect touch.
beautiful colors!
Like others have said, i just can't look at water in Florida without wondering if there are gators in there. Hope she is okay.
Looks like a painting almost. So beautiful. That little girl is making precious memories.
Isabella! It's like some cartoon! gorgeous!
Paradise, that's what it looks like to me. The little girl just makes the photo. Great catch!
WOW what a shot! I'll bet that little girl (at least I hope) was having fun!
Beautiful picture Isabella, the weather looks perfect too.
