Photographer's Note
In the Shan state lies Myanmar's picturesque Inle lake, the second largest lake of the country.
It is home of the intha (son of the lake) who live on stilt houses in the surrounding villages and on the lake itself.
Their main occupation is agriculture, fishing..
A long tradition for Intha people who develloped an unique method of fishing...
Here you can see 2 fishermen with their unusual conical fishing traps to catch carps, catfish etc...

bonjour marylin,
quand on connait un peu l'histoire contemporaine du pays, on a du mal a imaginer l'hystérie barbare des gouvernants en voyant une telle photo chargée d'un message de paix, de bonheur et de de tranquillité.

Une photo sans faute, Marilyn (un contraste plus accentue serait egige si on la mettait sous la presse). Elle decouvre un momnet de la vie journaliere dans ce mond tellement lointain. Puis l'equipement. Ta position est optimale pour la presentation de ton idee et de partage genereux de ton privilege. Avec toi on voit le monde. Merci amie,

Really a beautiful shot.
It's very attractive. My eyes don't want to leave. Sharpness, colors and light are perfect and make of your shot a master piece.
Not even the FG is beautiful but the BG is also amazing.
My english is too much bad to write all I would like.
Congratulations.

Hi Marilyn!
That's one of the reasons why I want to return to Myanmar, I don't have reasonable photos of these fishermen. When I went there it was the annual feast of the buddhas, so there were not many working.
I like this one,the pov, the golden light and especially the reflection on the water. Good one!
How is Thailand?

Bonsoir, chère Marilyn,
Il émane de cette composition une sorte de sérénité où le temps semble s'être arrêté.
Une image qui laisse place à la rêverie et aux voyages lointains.
La douceur des couleurs amplifie la beauté de l'ensemble.
Amitiés.

Bonsoir Marilyn,
Je suis toujours aussi fasciné par ces embarcations dont la fabrication doit être drôlement étudiée pour que son propriétaire puisse garder l'équilibre sur ce petit espace !!! Merveilleux reflet et moment de calme dans cette scène très agréable d'autant que cette lumière douce accentue cette sensation. Une belle photo sur cette rencontre entre pêcheurs, merci Marilyn.
Avec toutes mes amitiés et un très bon WE,

Hi Marilyn,
A classic from Inle, one of my favorite places in Myanmar. When I was here it was rainy and not as clear but still, I have such great memories of how beautiful it was. This one is even more beautiful enhanced by the warm light and the reflection is superb, giving a great essence of peace and tranquility.

Un classique du lac Inle, avec de superbes réflexions et une ambiance ultra tranquille.... j'aurais préféré que les deux pêcheurs ne se chevauchent pas... mais on n'a pas toujours ce qu on veut!

J'aime la pêche, excellent moment à réflexe dans l'eau, belle vue sur les bonnes couleurs et de belles photographies.

Bonjour Marilyn
A classic scene from Inle lake with the typical fishing net. You captured this in a fine sublime light. Even though the horizon seems to be centred, I don't mind simply because of the pastel hues and the calm mood! Good work!
Best Regards (still from hot & sultry Mumbai ;-))

Hi Marilyn,
it is a peaceful atmosphere in this picture that i like. I guess it is because of the soft warm light and the calm water with beautiful reflections, but it is also the fishermen and the lovely landscape that conveys harmony, well done.
Best regards.

J'aime beaucoup ce paysage d'une grande quiétude avec ces bateaux aussi fins que des libellules et leurs reflets. Une photo qu'on peut contempler comme une peinture.

Hi Marylin,
a very fascinating scene. It is the light that is really very effective here. The pastel colors make this composition quite interesting but most of all I like how the fishermen are acting on the boats. My compliments!
