Fishermen by the Nile

They start their day at the wake of dawn, gather their nets and start to head out to the river...the silent and deep river we call the nile....its beauty surpasses many others and it runs through our hearts and blood....it is Egypt....or at least one of its main characterizations....They gather on their boats throw the net to see what luck they have on this sunny day....they get some fish...some nile perche...one of the best in the world...they seem to live such a simple life but with so much beauty...they are satisfied and dont want more...they like the boat, they relate to its wood, they relate to the nile...it is their comfort zone where they find peace and serenity...it is HOME...I watch them from far by the sunset and can't get my eyes away from the other side. all i see are boats and boats...families smiling laughing...children swimming in the water....it is just simple and just so beautiful...some moments last a lifetime in one's memory and this simple humble life fills my soul with peace....ya rayess someone yells...rayess is the big boss of the fisherman...he is slim but has a big belly...like a bear belly but actually it s big from the amount of fish and bread that fills it....the face of the rayess is filled with a healthy glow and his cheeks are so red from living on the sea side...the tanned color of his face is the influence of the sun...Egypt is all about the sun and the nile....we get our warmth from this sun and we get our pride from this nile without which we wouldnt be here....we love it...we live it and we relate to it....:)
