I've had just enough time to... think about the way I fish.
Taken of the fisherman under the hot tropical sun in Kuching River
There
are many ways one can catch a fish
We can
do it with one rod
Or we
can do it with nine
That
explains the way we approach Life
There
are many ways we can reach a destination
We can
do it fast and easy
Or take many
detours along the way
That
explains the way we take our journeys
Taken of the very relaxed fisherman
There
are many ways we can love
We can
do it intensely
Or do it
lovingly forever
That
explains the nature of our heart
There
are many ways we can live our Life
You can
tell by the way we fish, or not

ReplyDeleteI was strolling along the esplanade of the Kuching river when I spied this fisherman in the middle of it. This was under the hot tropical sun, hot enough to bake your skin. You will get a sun-burnt only after a few minutes. But this brave soul just bundled himself up from head to foot leaving only a slit for his eyes to see and fingers free to hook his bait. Still, it must be very very hot. To increase his chances, he used multiples rod and lines. How many can you count? His passion is hotter than the tropical sun, I guess.

ReplyDeleteHe is not the only one. Further down the river, is another fisherman. But this one adopted a very relaxed style with his legs extending over the side of his boat and a cigarette in his mouth. He too have multiples rods. You really can tell a bit about a person by the way he fishes.

He is definitely geared to catch, with one exception the smoking I love to be in his place,
Lovely shot!

Many in Asia think we're crazy to have skin colors changed by the sun. This person is careful in the extreme.
Nice image.

Fabulous scene you captured again,my friend, and you have so reflectively approach life.
Nice composite and subject,Thou.You have touched so many issues concerning our attitude towards life.
I am really impressed how effectively the fisherman has protected himself from the hot tropical sun and I wonder,if he does it for a living or it is simply his favourite pastime.
He seems well-equipped and organised,though.

For some reason at first glance I thought this was a fishing lady. A fisherwoman. Perhaps because the clothes and hat look more feminine in colours and style to me. I think this fisherman/woman likes to make sure he/she is well presented in whatever he/she might be doing. I also suspect he/she is less experienced and confident then the other fisherman, so he/she doesn't seem as laid back and multi-tasking as the other one. Still this doesn't seem to stop this person from having dreams and hopes of catching lots of fish and making the most of their opportunities (or passion). Perhaps this doesn't necessarily imply promiscuity, but rather a need to meet as many possbilities with the view of ultimately finding their soul mate. Or at least a sole fish. he he he : ))

Indeed,many,many ways we can live and enjoy our life !!!
Love the way he comfortably sits on his " throne-like boat and his casual clothing.He has his own way to enjoy life and do the fishing with a cigarette in his mouth. He is a very passionate smoker,a great angler ...
I enjoyed your fishing-related posts and I fished quite interesting information.It was really fun !!!

Love these fishing shots Thou. They are so different and fascinating. I have never seen anyone covering their face to the extent these two are doing whilst fishing. I don't think I have seen anyone with so many fishing rods lined up at one time either. Either these two have a very special style of fishing or I haven't seen enough fisherman in action to understand real fishing. If the former is true then this guy certainly looks like he likes he knows how to make the most of his life and love life lol. He seems to know how to relax and work at the same time, and he never puts his eggs in one basket when it comes to love or opportunities (or shall I say he never puts his worms/baits on one rod) ha ha ha. As always you pick some wonderful topics for us to reflect on my friend. And the shots are brilliant too. : ))
