An Egyptian fisherman wearing a white cap, dark polo shirt, and sport shorts stands on large granite breakwater rocks at Ras El Bar, Damietta, with two green fishing rods resting against the stones beside him. He faces the calm blue Mediterranean or Nile delta waters, arms crossed, in a typical pose of a local fisherman waiting for a catch. Ras El Bar is a well-known Egyptian coastal resort town located at the confluence of the Nile and the Mediterranean Sea, frequented by local fishermen and summer visitors.
