There's something so perfect about this photo.

A coracle!
That is quote beautiful.
He the fisherman, she the wife.
Tho it looks like a partnership to me.
She probably made the boat. .
It's not like an American family in a little craft. There you'd see a car, with him at the wheel.
I guess there can be no back seat driving in a round boat.
Brilliant Photo!The Welsh use a boat like this I think It's called a Coracal great Blog Lloyd look forward to the book.
It's a nice angle. In any case, it seems like a boat that requires some balance and teamwork in order to get some fishing done due to its size. Like anywhere else in the world, fishing requires a lot of patience and concentration...
