[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I was on my research project to Kampong Spue province with several of my medical friends and my professor. After work, we went for lunch at a nice restaurant near a lack. the view is very nice. After I ate, I was looking around the place to see if there is anything interesting that I can get. Saw this guy were neting fish, so I waited for him to throw the net. One thing I was wishing was that he turned the other way around. But well cannot control the situation. Here it is.

hi Sothy

Very nicely composed shot with good DOF to show the net casting action freeze. Great light exposure to give a strong color contrast.

tfs, bill

hi sothy,
framing goes well with this lovely compsosition. colors are congenial. the fisherman is captured well "doing his thing".
enjoy your sojourn!

Hi Sothy,
Hmmmmmmm, i would like to have such an image in my collection, but it seems that i have to go back to Cambodia ;-)
The framing and the placement of the fisherman is well choosen but also very good composed. The right moment for some action...great.
Have a nice weekend, Henk

Hi Sothy,
It is very extraordinary. We would say an immense jellyfish which flies away!
This sort of fishing seams to be very difficult!
I like very much the work on colors with this a little golden pink and purple rocks.
Bravo, friendly
Diane

Beautiful picture with perfect timing. i tried on a few occasions while in Laos to get similar scenes but did not even close to what you did here. Excellent colors on the river.

it's a fine moment Sothy,

gr. jaap

For some strange I have been missing your work. Although i once rememebr seeing the bamboo image. Your gallery is a collection of timeless amsterpieces...its like an art gallery. This image too and the timliness of the click is remarkable. The colours and the pov are superb. Now I hope to keep a closer look at whatever you do!

Hello Sothy,
A classic Cambodian fisherman gesture. Just a shame that the fisherman was not photographed from the front... But no one is bound to do the impossible.
Regards.
Pierre.

Hi, dear friend, in this image you have captured really the decisive moment of this fisherman. Also the background is very pleasant with well saturated colors that reflect on the water. Very beautiful photo, I like it. Compliments.
Ciao and happy week
Paolo.

ignoring the blue pipe behind this is an amazing shot sothy... well captured at the right moment... the net looks just superb, congrats pal...

Hello Sothy,

A very good capture the fisherman unfurling his net. The photograph is rich in color, well-composed and displays good color. The purple in the distance is somewhat bewildering, but otherwise everything is very good.

Warm regards,
Bulent

Hi Sothy,
A well composed shot with good clarity, colors and sharppness. You have captured all the fine details of this old fishing custom wonderfully.
Thank you for sharing
