This sets I zero onto their working environment.


Yes, use nets. Free the cormorants.


A beautiful catch by the fisherman

    Exceptional work, David. This current series is also very educational for me. I'm particularly amazed at #4 in this set. It's all I can do to throw an 8 to 10 foot net when shrimping my local Florida waters. I can't imagine trying to throw a net of such dimensions as the one shown here. I have a new hero in that fisherman.

    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    Tks Tom for dropping in and your nice words again.

    I have completely no knowledge about throwing of net. By what you said, he must have great skill and balancing act too, standing merely on 5 rows of crudely strung together bamboo poles.

    Another remarkable set David. #4 is my favorite, but all are wonderful. Keep 'em coming.

    Thanks Torags for viewing again. Yes indeed, this place has so many variables and countless ways to shoot. I really don't mind going there again in a different season and harvesting time.
