EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph by Pavol Stranak titled "Drying Fish," the sun-kissed shores of Negombo, Sri Lanka, come alive with the daily rhythm of fishing community. The sandy beach, dotted with the scattered remains of dried fish, stretches out towards the azure sea, as a few clouds lazily drift across the sky. In the foreground, a lone fisherman, his body etched with the lines of labor, meticulously arranges his catch on the sand. His weathered face, creased with the passage of time and the elements, bears the quiet determination of a man who has spent his life at the mercy of the sea. As the sun begins to set, the scene transforms into a bustling hub of activity. A group of women, their sarees billowing in the breeze, join the fisherman in the laborious task of drying the fish. Their laughter and chatter fill the air, creating a symphony of sounds that echoes the rhythm of the ocean. In the background, a flock of birds, drawn by the scent of the fish, take flight, adding a touch of whimsy to the scene. This photograph captures the essence of life in Negombo, where the cycle of fishing, drying, and selling fish forms the backbone of the community. The simple yet profound beauty of the scene invites the viewer to pause and reflect on the interconnectedness of nature, work, and human spirit. The image is a poignant reminder of the resilience and determination of the people who live and work along the shores of the Indian Ocean, and the delicate balance they maintain between their livelihoods and the natural world.
