Fisher Boys, by Shahnaz Parvin
Bangladesh is a country with hundreds of rivers and ponds and is notable for being a fish-loving nation, acquiring the name “Machh-e Bhat-e Bangali” which means, “Bengali by fish and rice”. Hilsha fish is the national fish of the country where it contributes 13% of country’s total fish production. Fish are collected both from natural resources and by farming in self-made ponds. In this photo two boys after the rainy season trying to catch a fish with hand, amazing, isn’t it?
