Fishing at the canal

By JN
This is a picture depicting a scene at a canal. It appears to be raining.

There are three pairs of shoes near the canal. I think that those shoes belong to the boys in the canal. There is also a jar partially filled with water with fishes swimming inside. One of the boys is also holding a fishing net. I think that the boys must have been catching fishes in the canal earlier.

There are three boys in the canal. One of the boys is wearing a striped polo T-shirt, another wearing a collared T-shirt and another wearing a white T-shirt with black shorts. The boys wearing the striped polo T-shirt and the collared T-shirt are grinning widely. They are also splashing water onto the boy wearing a white T-shirt with black shorts. The boy wearing the white T-shirt is trying to shield himself by using his hands to block the splashes of water. Judging from his facial expression and defensive actions, I guess that the two boys are bullying boy wearing the white shirt. Judging from the two boys’ expression, I can tell that they are having a lot of fun. They, however, are having fun at the expense of the boy wearing the white shirt.

At the right-hand corner of the picture, there is a girl and an adult. The adult is probably the girl’s father. The girl is holding onto one of her father’s hands and pointing towards the bullied boy with her other hand. The girl’s father is holding a cane in one of his hands. If I were the father, I would lecture all the three boys for playing in the canal. However, I will more likely focus on the two boys who has been splashing water on the poor boy. I might ring up their parents in the hope that the boys would be punished accordingly.

To conclude, I feel that although the two boys bullied the boy in the white shirt, all of them were at fault. They should not catch fishes in the canal in the first place, especially when it is raining, as it is very dangerous.
