EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Tim Mannakee transports us to the serene beauty of Halong Bay in Quang Ninh Province, North-East Vietnam. As the sun sets over this UNESCO World Heritage Site, it casts a mesmerizing glow on the oyster beds that line the coast. The image captures the essence of coastal life in South-East Asia, where aquaculture plays a vital role in sustaining communities. The long exposure technique used by Mannakee adds an ethereal quality to the scene, blurring the movement of water and creating a sense of tranquility. Against this backdrop, we see rows of sticks protruding from the sea, marking each oyster bed with precision. Halong Bay is renowned for its seafood delicacies, particularly its succulent oysters harvested from these very beds. This photo reminds us of how closely intertwined fishing and food production are with nature's rhythms along this picturesque shoreline. As low tide reveals more of the seashore, silhouettes emerge against the fading light. The Gulf of Tonkin stretches out before us as far as our eyes can see—a vast expanse that holds both mystery and sustenance. Mannakee's composition invites contemplation about our connection to nature and how it provides for us. It serves as a reminder to cherish not only breathtaking landscapes but also those who work tirelessly to bring food from sea to table.
