Stilt fishing is a tradition of southern Sri Lanka, unique in the world. It allows anglers to enter shallow water without being visible to fish; however, it is a particularly tiring fishing method because it requires you to balance for hours on these precarious supports, and you only catch small fish, bringing home a meager booty. Over the years it has been replaced by more modern fishing methods, and the devastating tsunami of 2004 dealt the final blow to this tradition by wiping out everything on the coast. Nowadays, the remaining "stilt fishermen" mostly do it to get tips in exchange for the chance to photograph them, but I still wanted to take a picture of this fascinating tradition. I came out very wet (I went into the sea to take it, and it was raining heavily) but I think it captures the stormy atmosphere well. La pesca sui trampoli è una tradizione del sud dello Sri Lanka, unica al mondo. Permette ai pescatori di entrare in acque basse senza essere visibili ai pesci; tuttavia, è un metodo di pesca particolarmente faticoso perchè richiede di stare in equilibrio per ore su questi precari appoggi, e si pescano solo pesci di piccole dimensioni, portando a casa un magro bottino. Nel corso degli anni è stata sostituita da metodi di pesca più moderni, e il devastante tsunami del 2004 ha dato l'ultimo colpo a questa tradizione spazzando via ogni cosa che c'era sulla costa. Al giorno d'oggi, gli "stilt fishermen" rimasti lo fanno perlopiù per riceve mance in cambio della possibilità di fotografarli, ma ho voluto comunque scattare una foto di questa affascinante tradizione. Ne sono uscito bagnatissimo (per scattarla sono entrato in mare, e pioveva a dirotto) ma penso che colga bene l'atmosfera temporalesca. |

Absolutely and you couldn't have done better.
Thank you, Juza, for this cultural gem: pieces of a world that we are losing. Assolutamente e non avresti potuto fare meglio.
Grazie, Juza, per questa perla culturale: pezzi di un mondo che stiamo perdendo. |

You can see the drops of rain in the sea in the foreground, so can you assure us that this Nikon combo is water resistant :-D ?
Congratulations both for the photo and for your stubbornness to enter the sea to take it! Si vedono le gocciolone di pioggia nel mare in primo piano, quindi ci assicuri che questa combo Nikon é water resistent ?
Complimenti sia per la foto che per la tua caparbietà di entrare anche in mare per scattarla! |

Cultural and economic changes are homogenizing everything, in any case, even if only for exhibition, they are always beautiful shots to see. 8-) I cambiamenti culturali ed economici stanno omogeneizzando tutto, in ogni caso, anche se solo per esibizione, sono sempre dei bei scatti da vedere. |

Incredible photo, 3 fishing
rods, water bottle to drink,
fish bag: I think you can see several and large ones,
yellow raincoat with hood,
all on a pole in the rain in the sea! :-D
For those of us who have a few years on our shoulders, we know that
similar things were "normal" even in our good old days. Foto incredibile, 3 canne da pesca,
bottiglia dell'acqua da bere,
sacco per i pesci: mi pare che se ne intravedono diversi e grandi,
impermeabile giallo con cappuccio,
tutto su di un palo sotto la pioggia in mare!
Per chi di noi ha qualche anno sulle spalle sa che
cose simili erano "normali" anche nei nostri bei tempi che furono. |
