Artisan coastal fishing -
- a small photo report from Mahabalipuram in 1966,
some rafts in Tamil Nadu
Mahabalipuram is an ancient temple on small spit of land stretching into the Bay of Bengal south of Chennai (Madras). It is a well known touirist place.
Close to the temple I watched and photographed fishing rafts when I visited the place in 1966. I was really surprised how skillfull the fishermen handled their task and went out in the sea for their catch. The beach had its own beauty created by the people as well the temple being a part of this place. The atmosphere may have changed due to the increased tourist facilities. So my pictures are of histroric interest.
this is near Chidambaram in Mangrove waters: UNESCO fishing nets, throw net:
