Carry Country Side Eels Raymond Sheppard Trap Trapping Traps Wickerwork


EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, a man diligently carries a wickerwork eel trap on his back as he makes his way through the lush, green countryside. The image transports us to a bygone era of rural life, where the simple pleasures of nature and the daily rhythm of work were deeply intertwined. The man's weathered face and sturdy build speak of a life spent in the elements, while the traps stacked behind him suggest the communal nature of this traditional fishing practice. The scene unfolds along the banks of a serene body of water, its surface shimmering in the dappled sunlight filtering through the trees. The man's focus is unwavering as he navigates the uneven terrain, his determination to provide for himself and his community evident in every step. The use of natural materials in the construction of the eel traps further underscores the harmony between man and nature, as well as the ingenuity and resourcefulness of rural communities. This photograph, taken by renowned photographer Raymond Sheppard, captures a moment of quiet contemplation and hard work in the rural landscape. It invites us to reflect on the connection between our past and present, and the enduring appeal of a simpler way of life. The man's laborious journey with the eel trap on his back serves as a poignant reminder of the resilience and dedication required to live off the land, and the deep respect for the natural world that such a lifestyle fosters.
