The happiest fisherman on Lake Inle /Myanmar. He gave us his biggest smile and seemed delighted to meet us.
The most common fish in the lake is called nag hpein or simply Inle Carp.
After more smiles and having a conversation in sign language ..

Great series, and an excellent first photo. He looks as if he's always smiling.
ReplyDeleteHe slowly went on his way ... leaving his reflection for your camera to play with. Beautiful pictures in many ways, Karen. I am headed your way on the 25th ... will be in the Zurich area and in Grindelwald through Sept. 8 ... would love to meet you over a cup of tea or coffee if you are available :)

ReplyDeletethank you for the kind comment on Bud’s picture of the basketball net. he is just starting his blog. he and I are both in awe of your awesome series of the fisherman this week. the detail you were able to capture is amazing....love the wrinkles under his eyes. kudos to you for a fine post.

Fantastic series Karen! You're right, he looks like the most content fisherman. He looks too big for his little boat, but that doesn't seem to bother him. Happy with so little,... wonderful to see...
ReplyDelete... und er ist mal richtig gut gelaunt davongepaddelt!
ReplyDeleteCoole Schwarz/Weiß Bilder, merci!!!
P. S.: Ich bin so ein Glückskind - heute schon wieder kein Regen, nur Wolken! So kann's bleiben (okay, gegen ein paar Grad über 20 hätte ich jetzt nicht wirklich was ...)
