This sea is not just a body of water; it is the final refuge for thousands of souls. When those massive ships stand like mountains at the estuary, the boatman in his tiny skiff knows exactly how solitary he is amidst such grandeur. As I captured these moments, the rhythmic strikes of nails and the scent of the salty air seemed to blend into a strange, collective sigh. When an anchor is finally dropped, is it just the ship that comes to a halt? Or does it mark a fleeting moment of respite for a worker after a day of back-breaking toil?

A childhood by the river carries its own scent.
