Shot on 8mm film in 1954, this vintage home movie captures a serene lake surrounded by dense green trees under a soft sky. A person in a dark swimsuit water skis across the calm water, leaving a white wake behind. The footage has a nostalgic, slightly grainy quality with natural color fading typical of mid-century film. The scene evokes a peaceful summer day of outdoor recreation in the American Midwest.
