Last of the Cormorant Fishermen

31mm · f/4.0 · 1/125s · ISO 250

Guilin, China.

Our cormorant fisherman actor taking a break. These actors are the only ones left re-enacting the dying tradition of cormorant fishing as almost no fish can be caught and fishing is prohibited on the Li River.

The image is stunning. How did you manage to have water so still without ripples and keep the subject so sharp?

Thanks Sergey! The water is really so still there in the morning and the man knows that he has to keep still :)
