Kerala Boats Trawlers Fishing Repairs dry Docks Photography

            Continuing to remain in Kerala for this upload. 
The fishing trawler "Bibinbinish" of a green Moslem declaration is getting ready to be hauled in to dry dock during the monsoon season. That is the time when fishing is generally banned in India.

The workers are getting the haulage right by placing wooden planks underneath to guide the boat onto the rails. A complicated maneuovre it is with wafer thin margins for errors. One of the key workers is neck deep in the  water and has the toughest job in hand.


 Notes on Photography 

This has been shot with a wide angle lens at 14mm. The trawler is large and the perspective of the camera on the ground accentuates the height and largeness of the vessel which gets even more highlighted because of the wide angle lens. Most people use wide angle lenses for landscape photography but to use it in day to day activities requires acute understanding of perspective and distortion which if studied well can lead you to some outstanding images.
