I Photographed Fishermen, Who Use Stilts For Inshore Fishing

ADVERTISEMENT

While fishermen with better economic conditions will go offshore fishing with motor boats, the poorer ones only use simple tools to go inshore fishing but also obtain enough output to improve their lives and stilt is one of their typical ways for inshore fishing.

Today, a few fishermen in some coastal areas still use this fishing method such as Nam Dinh and Thanh Hoa in the North of Vietnam.

Join our photography tour to enjoy great moments and see the fishermen’s working scene.

Hello Pandas! My name is Ieva, though it's often mistaken for the word 'Leva,' and in Lithuanian, it means 'loser' (insert the pain emoji). While I don't take offense if you accidentally call me a loser, I thought I'd share something interesting with you, which I also do professionally at work.Anywayyy, my favorite part here is introducing you to creative people who deserve just as much recognition as famous celebrities. Besides that, I also enjoy memes and funny, lighthearted posts, and occasionally, I find myself drawn to a bit of internet drama.

Walking in sand is already difficult; I can't even imagine walking in stilts on sand. These fishermen must have extraordinarily strong legs! When I was a kid, I knew an old, old man who had been a shepherd in rural France. When he was a child, the shepherds in his village used stilts to traverse the hills and keep an eye on the flocks. Your photography is extraordinary! Thank you for sharing!
