I believe this is a Beech Bonanza (BE-33)rather than a Navion.

A correction to the correction, it's either a Model 35 (built in 1947-48) or a Model A35 (built in 1949) Bonanza. The Model 33 Debonair series was the single straight tail version that came much later. In any case it's a great photograph and very reminiscent of scenes of similar airplanes in So. Louisiana where I'm from.
