Pulling the net
Roseau Valley, St Lucia. 2011.
There is a large pipe that runs from the ocean, along the valley to a nearby rum distillery. Large ships moor close to shore to pump molasses to the distillery. The people living in the village come together, both young and old, to pull in a large fishing net which they cast earlier. It's moving to watch two generations living in the now of the moment. I felt privileged to be allowed as an onlooker.
