Washing the Fishing Net at Thevara, Cochin, Kerala, India

            As I have mentioned before, a long bridge spans the backwaters from the mainland Cochin to the Willingdon Island in Ernakulam. From the bridge you can look down and shoot the various activities that take place in the backwaters,. 
The sandmen with their cargo of illegal sand, the fishermen with their nets and the sparse catch, an occasional large vessel carrying raw materials to the Fertiliser factory. 
Sometimes it rains, other times it is warm and sunny.

It is a great place to be.
This was shot quite some time ago while I stayed in the neighborhood and loved every day of it.

Flickr has after a long time managed to get the interactive display page that is appealing and interactive. Why did it take so long to do that, I really wonder. Maybe Yahoo needs to get rid of the lady in charge and let normalcy prevail.
