The Kashmiri Fisherman


The Indian Kashmir has been a highly disputed territory for decades. An impressive number of Indian soldiers are stationed there, and terrorist attacks still happen on a regular basis.

But far from this agitation and borders dispute, the local Kashmiri fishermen still lead a peaceful way of life, based on traditional fishing.

Sliding on the quiet waters of the Dal Lake on their Shikara (traditional boat), smoking the Hookah, life goes on smoothly.
