Cool capture. The angle of the shot of this fisherman on the water in his boat is great. The clarity is great. The capture of the light is great. The presentation is balance and eye appealing to the viewer. Good eye and great job overall.

You have indeed pictured this fisherman well, and I especially like the fine reflections from his red outfit in the shiny water. You have also captured so well the water splashes around the net. The man is standing out from the background in an excellent way.

The photo is sharp and it is such clear and well defined details to be seen both in the boat and the fisherman. I like the limited color pallet, and the exposure is perfect.

I also like the way you have cropped the photo and the placement of the boat off to the right. This is a truly lovely and well taken photo Fred, and with an excellent DOF.

A beautiful image that shows the unique boats and style of the local fisherman. If only he was paddling with his leg. An excellent composition with great colors.

Fred,
A beautiful & interesting picture of the Inle Lake fisherman standing on the end of his flat bottomed boat that he propelles with a long oar held in his right hand with the conical net is held in his left hand. The sun highlighting the fisherman, his boat, oar & net. His reflection on the lake's glistening surface is an added bonus. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.
Susan

A good looking image posted here together with interesting notes! Your fine and classical composition offers us an enjoyable view of that hard working fisherman and his location. Colours, textures and tones are good. Nicely done!

This is the kind of photograph I dream of. With this kind of subject and exactly background, doing exactly the same thing. I would stay there all morning and come back at sunset, take as many shots possible and then try different styles on photoshop . Your image is beautiful and nicely presented.

Fred sometimes you frustrate me when i see some of your photos from your travels and see photos from your hotel etc.
Think i have commented that you should take more local photos and give more of a glimpse of local life,this is a good example of that its a well seen and taken photo and interesting as well,okay wish the fisherman was a bit nearer but its still good,more please...Brian

Wow, they all seem to catch fishes, but you know that I am happy that it is not visible when he got it , so this picture is again special and your distance is well-chosen from the board, so the entire content is showing us perfectly what is happening as he is standing in a super special place in his boat, so this is again a special picture, my dear friend, xoxo
