It is rather nice to see a bit of traditional culture although I am certain it will vanish in not too long sigh - quite excellent!

Is it made of wood? I like the way you have put it diagonally across the picture. Is he fishing in that?

I don't suppose his technique is as efficient as more modern methods, although it's certainly more picturesque! An excellent capture :)

I think this is what is known as a lesser sanpan. Great capture of a tradition watercraft.

Beautiful, and tell your good lady it is so. The diagonal composition is great, and catching the fisherman looking into the frame with the paddle pointing similarly, shows you have a good eye. Everything sharp too, and the water is watery. Cliff.
