Perfect Draught, a photo from Bali, Nusa Tenggara

Photographer's Note

Today draught was perfect. The Balinese fishermen use jukung for fishing. These traditional boats will venture out into the coastal waters late in the night and return with their catch soon after sunrise. They are able to sail 50-60km far into the ocean.We have had luck to be present in the moment when such small jukung sailed in with huge draught of big fishes. What was incomprehensible to me is fact that there was only one fisherman in the boat (man with headwear in the middle of the picture) which brought five big fishes in his small jukung.

Hello Jiri
Cant understand why this shot has gone unmarked by TE viewers. Let me be the first to add my points. This is a really great picture of these people in their daily life with the sheerfull children adding to the scene. Such an amazing catch. This shot can go right into National Geographic. Congratulations.
Tony
