EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot from North Siberia, Russia, we witness a truly extraordinary sight – fence-fishing! As winter blankets the land with its icy grip, resourceful indigenous men have found an ingenious way to reel in their catch. Bundled up against the freezing temperatures and armed with determination, these brave fishermen venture out into the night. With rivers frozen solid and snow-covered landscapes stretching as far as the eye can see, they set up their fishing traps along sturdy fences that crisscross this wintry wonderland. The photo captures a magical moment when one of these hardy souls checks his trap under a starlit sky. The anticipation is palpable as he pulls on his gloves and prepares for what lies beneath. Will it be a burbot or another prized fish species lurking in those frigid waters? This image not only showcases the resilience of humans living in extreme conditions but also highlights their deep connection to nature. It reminds us that even amidst harsh weather conditions, life finds a way to thrive. So next time you think about casting your line on a sunny summer day, remember these fearless fence-fishermen braving sub-zero temperatures for their daily catch!
