Proof of Enlightenment!
I have been wondering… Can you attain enlightenment when you reach a certain point in diving? I captured this rare proof of such a phenomenon at Forgotten Islands, Indonesia. My good friend, Dive Master Sam Yang, was seen with a bright halo around his head!
All kidding aside, I think this is a pretty cool photo :)
Bubu... No, I didn't hurt myself...
In Alor, Indonesia, many fishermen still use bubu, traditional fish trap made of woven bamboo and rattan. They come in variety of shapes, but the one I saw was cylindrical with one open end that is narrowed inward. The fish swim inside through the narrow and elongated entrance. Once inside, the fish rarely finds its way out. The fishermen just drop them in without lines or floats, wait a few days, and then simply swim down to retrieve them.
