Description

This is a black and white photo of a man helping a boy swim. The man and boy are in the foreground to the left, and the man is holding the boy up to float as he kicks his leg in an effort to swim. The man has a concentrated look on his face, and the boy is smiling. There are at least eight children swimming in the background, as well as barrels, wood slats, and other things floating in the water. The body of water is surrounded by a grassy field and trees along the horizon.
