Hello friends of black and white, and fishing enthusiasts. On this occasion I want to share with you some images, and with them I make my entry to the daily challenge #monomad, of the exercise, hobbit or sport of fishing in the wall of the bay of the city where I live. I had to pass by the Havana Malecon, the oldest part of the city and I did not hesitate to take my camera. Almost at noon, with 34 degrees Celsius behind me and with a relative humidity around 70%, some fishermen were there, placidly, on the wall.
In this part of the city, usually between 10 to 20 fishermen gather regularly, but not that day, there were very few indeed. Perhaps unfortunately the incipient pollution that I noticed in the waters of the bay were to blame.
I had the opportunity to capture a father-grandfather teaching the child to cast the reel hook into the water, it was very good to see this action in these days, where many teenagers do not take off their cell phones and do not socialize in a natural way, with human contact. I hope you like this photographic proposal. See you!

Hola amigos del blanco y negro, y aficionados a la pesca. En esta ocasión quiero compartir con ustedes algunas imágenes, y con ellas hago mi entrada al reto diario #monomad, del ejercicio, hobbit o deporte de pescar en el muro de la bahía de la ciudad donde vivo. Debía pasar por el malecón habanero, por la parte más antigua de la ciudad y no dudé en llevar mi cámara. Casi a punto del mediodía, con 34 grados celcius a mi espalda y con una humedad relativa rondando el 70% estaban allí, en el muro, plácidamente, algunos pescadores. En esta parte de la ciudad se reúnen por lo general entre 10 a 20 pescadores habituales, pero ese día no, eran muy pocos en verdad. Quizás desgraciadamente la incipiente contaminación que noté en las aguas de la bahía tengan algo de culpa. Tuve la oportunidad de capturar a un padre-abuelo enseñando al niño a lanzar el anzuelo del carrete al agua, fue muy bueno ver esta acción en los días que corren, donde muchos adolescentes no se despegan del teléfono móvil y no socializan de forma natural, con contacto humano. Espero les agrade esta propuesta fotográfica ¡Nos vemos!

Thanks to the @qurator team, especially @brumest! 👍
What a great job... I loved it. I like to see people's expressions, very much. As well as the details of the things they are doing.
👌
I'm glad you liked it. In the first photo the fisherman wasn't too happy with the camera, but then I talked to him and he softened up, it looks like he hadn't fished for a while, and I understand. Have you seen the bay recently?
I have not gone beyond Prado. I went along the Malecón on one of my bike rides, from Prado to 12 in Vedado.
Congratulations. Today's #monomad third place is yours.
Thank You very much for participating and for being part of the Black And White Community!
