King Fisherman in Sri Lanka

[DanPonjican]

This is a picture I took over 6 years ago during a trip to Sri Lanka. It was actually a funny experience. This guy jumped off of his posted after I snapped the picture (pulled over on the side of the road) and ran to me asking for a money for letting me take his picture! LOL! I wonder if he was even fishing!

It's a great picture...so how much did you pay him?!

I'm guessing a couple hundred rupies which would have been a couple bucks. About a days wage for him!

Wow ~ you probably made him one happy man!

I was there on an unrelated assignment. This was strictly a "carpe diem" shot.

This probably belongs in one of the gallery sections of the forum then.
