Fishing float

We found this fishing float lost in rushes.
We liked the contrast of the bright colors with the BG.

Thanks for your comments and suggestions.

I think that bobber and hook set up is used to catch flying fish. ( Okay, enough of that. I can hear the groans from here.)
Nice background and like the focus on the reed and setup. Not sure about reed in far left corner and the brighter one that is diagonal to it. Not a big deal, for me however. I like this photo a lot.

A very unique image that I like a lot!
Love the dangling lure and the OOF reeds.

While you have captured a pleasing image, I do hope that you removed that stuff afterwards as it can be a lethal trap for birds.

Great find and capture. The warm light really makes this quite pretty - with or without the bobber. And colors are great. Of course being able to see the fishing line is key too.

Thank you all for the comments.
Unfortunately it was not possible to get to the bobber and remove it.
The photo was taken from a gangway among rushes on the water.

I like this a lot. The color and detail are excellent. I like the fronds in the left corner--they really help balance the composition.

This is really good! Not all what I would expect to see, which makes it all the more interesting. Very well seen and done.
