EDITORS COMMENTS
Caught Fish Hanging on a Tree, La Digue, Seychelles (circa 1967) This evocative photograph captures the essence of simple, rural life on the beautiful island of La Digue in the Seychelles. The image shows several large, freshly-caught fish, hanging from the branches of a tree, their eyes still gleaming with a vitality that speaks of the vibrant underwater world from which they were plucked. The sun casts dappled shadows across the scene, adding to the sense of tranquility and serenity. The practice of hanging fish to dry in the sun is a traditional method used in many coastal communities around the world, including the Seychelles. It allows the fish to be preserved for longer periods, ensuring a steady food supply during leaner times. The tree, with its gnarled branches and twisted roots, provides a natural and effective means of drying the fish, while also serving as a testament to the resourcefulness and ingenuity of the local people. The scene is further enhanced by the warm, golden light of the sun, which bathes the island in a golden glow. The simple, rustic beauty of the image transports us back to a simpler time, when life was lived at a slower pace and the natural world provided all the necessities for survival. The fish, hanging on the tree, serve as a reminder of the rich biodiversity of the Seychelles, and the importance of preserving and celebrating the unique cultures and traditions that define this beautiful corner of the world.
