Photograph, from left to right, of Frances West and Howard Buttress standing on the bank of a stream near Silver Lake while Howard Buttress poses with a fish. Howard stands, right-of-center, on a pebble-covered bank of a stream. He holds up a fish with one hand by its gill. He is turned towards the left, but turns his head towards the camera. Frances West stands partially out-of-frame on the left. She rests a hand to her hip as she faces and looks towards Howard. A canoe lies on the shore behind Howard. The stream flows behind him at right, curving to the left where it disappears behind some tall grasses. On the opposite bank, a mountain rises in the background at right.
