The Stick Fishermen of Sri Lanka
Monsoon clouds fill the sky at a beach south of Galle, Sri Lanka
Sri Lankan fishermen, known locally as stick fishermen, sit perched on stilts fixed into the ocean floor
A man sits perched on a stilt fixed to the ocean floor as he fishes
He stands on one leg on his stilt as he takes a break from fishing. A fisherman will generally spend many hours on his uncomfortable perch
A Sri Lankan fisherman walks into the water to take his place on the stilts fixed to the ocean floor...
A fisherman wading out is hit by a wave...
...but he manages to keep his cigarette alight
A stilt fisherman takes a break
Stick fishermen sit perched on stilts fixed into the ocean floor, as others fish from an embankment
Stick fisherman work as the sun sets
