Honorable Mention
Sunrise Fishing
DESCRIPTION
In the numerous lagoons that are formed by Thu Bon River, near the ancient city of Hoi An, local fishermen lift their nets during sunrise. The dazzling golden sun, the characteristic Vietnamese figure of the fisherman and the abstract forms of the nets create a spectacle to behold. AUTHOR
Although a Civil Engineer in profession, I turned out as an amateur travel photographer having traveled to numerous countries around the world such as Ethiopia, India, Burkina Faso, Indonesia, Cote d'Ivoire, China, Peru, Bolivia, Brazil, Papua New Guinea, Mali, Benin, Haiti, Cuba etc. My main goal is to capture the uniqueness of the local cultures and the life of the people in the most remote places of our world, emphasizing on syncretism between rare religions and rituals. My pictures have been awarded multiple awards in many prestigious photo competitions and have been published in many books and magazines.
