EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the daily life of a Seychellois man as he meticulously cleans the bottom of his beached boat in the harbor of La Digue, Seychelles. The year is 1967, and the scene transports us back in time to an era when the island's economy was primarily driven by fishing and boat transportation. The man, dressed in simple clothing, wades into the shallow water, his focus intently on the task at hand. The boat, weathered by the elements, rests on the sandy beach, its hull exposed for the man to clean. The clear blue waters of the Indian Ocean gently lap at the shore, reflecting the clear sky above. The harbor of La Digue, with its traditional wooden boats, is bustling with activity. Other men can be seen working on their boats or loading and unloading cargo. The island's lush greenery and palm trees provide a beautiful backdrop to the scene. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the hard work and resilience of the Seychellois people. It is a reminder of the importance of maintaining one's livelihood, even in the most challenging of circumstances. The image also highlights the unique character and charm of La Digue, a place where the past and present blend seamlessly together.
