Enjoying the afternoon at Gampong Jawa beach, Banda Aceh became the habit of most citizens to come to the beach that became the zero point of this Banda Aceh city. On this beach we can see directly fisherman catch fish by using traditional fishing gear.
That afternoon, I came to the beach to take pictures of fishing activities. Every day these coastal fisherman regularly search for fish using traditional fishing rods (traditional fishing rods), and the fish will be sold in this place.
I often hunt for photos in that location, but there are unusual scenes in that day. I saw gulls of large numbers approaching fish nets. Amazing! The first time I saw the seagulls quickly grabbed the catch of fisherman in Gampong Jawa Beach.
Hmm .. that afternoon is a different thing than usual, or rarely.
The fisherman are not concerned with the action of seagulls who benefit from their hard work. Like between birds and fisherman, like sharing the same time.
Gulls are usually a guide for fishermen who catch fish. If in one region there are many seagulls around the sea surface, it is a sign of fish will enter in large numbers.
The activities of the fishermen and the action of the seagulls are an interesting spectacle for the inhabitants of Banda Aceh visiting the coast.
This is a rare sight considering the gulls usually play in the middle of the ocean, but now fly to the beach.
Here are the photos of my work that have been aired by menatapaceh.com, photography websites owned by Harian Serambi Indonesia (aceh.tribunnews.com), the press company where I work.
I shot these photos with fuji film XT10 | Lens fujinon 18-135 mm
