Empty Nets

The Chinese style large net has been hauled up and the fisherman and his son have pulled up their empty net. Symbolic for the lack of fish in the oceans everywhere due to extreme commercial fishing.

What a superb picture - the blues are splendid, also the silhouetted boat and figures. A most unusual net, which I am sure many like me are not familiar with. A tragedy to see it empty. Nice work Raj.

Perfect capture Raj. It depicts very well the situation described in your narrative. Think it will be, but it's better to say 'it's already' a huge problem for the local people who are dependant whether there's fish in their nets or not. Think however the owners of the huge ocean going fish factories don't bother the problems of the local people. Going on this way will make that it's just a matter of time before the big trawlers are forced to quit fishing as well.

It is unfathomable that the fish are getting scarce. Wow. Mind boggling. Great shot and message Raj.

A wonderful shot, Raj. Everything is here from the fantastic fishing net to the boat with its passengers. That net is really a very impressive way to fish.
