Fish And Girl

Shot in Dalah, Myanmar.

A rice field was beside the dirt road. The verdurous rice plants were grown in the field. Yet the harvest was still to come. No rice stalk was seen there. Alternatively, I saw many kids moving around in it. All of them moved in a semi-crouching position while they watched the water surface. I wondered what they were doing in the rice field.

In the meantime, one kid raised its voice. Watching it, a fish was in its hand. They didn't pull out the weeds. They caught fishes there. Some fishes they caught were put into a plastic bucket placed on the edge of the dirt road.

The girl in this photo was one of those who caught fishes in the rice field. When I held my camera, she raised her chase up and smiled at me bashfully.
