Fisherman with net

​As we arrived on Inle Lake, a fisherman was using one arm to paddle and one arm and one leg to manipulate his "net"

Late, in the afternoon

One of only a few fishermen left on the lake one afternoon. The ​water was getting choppy and he didn't seem to be having much luck.

This was somewhat posed. He saw us taking his picture and gave a bit of a show by lifting the net with his foot.

Kayan woman

Kayan woman

We came across this woman and her daughters of the Kayan ethnic group. They were sitting weaving in the back of a store. Apparently their necks are not longer, their collar bone gets pushed down.

​These are the brass rings used by the Kayan women to give the appearance of an elongated neck.
