vantage point

This is "tripod fishing" quite common in Australia and in Asia. This is taken

in the Philippines at Lake Taal, a freshwater lake where some rare fish

abound. The yellow moss is prominent during the dry season and the water

is shallow to the fishermen's advantage so he could climb up the bamboo-

made tripod to spot fishes at a higher elevation. Armed with a air rifle,

shooting not with bullets but home-made darts with strings attached to

retrieve the fishes caught. Thank you for viewing and you can "click"

Beautiful landscape shot well-documenting a habit and life style. Great control of light and tones. Just i see the sky has two distinct regions, probably the effects of an ND grad filter or something. Although a minor point in this excellent shot. Compliments.

Hamid.

And interesting story behind it!

Warm regards Lester!
