It's a wonderful thing when the pleasant unexpected happens along the journey of life. I have walked over our town bridge hundreds of times yet I have never seen the fish jumping like they were last evening. A couple of young fellows fishing from the bridge had caught a small catfish and made mentioned of mullet. We know there are eels, bull sharks and perch in the river also.
The rippling rings were quite fascinating to watch in the stillness of the sunset as I tried to anticipate and capture the hopping fish on camera.
