Fishermen Hauling a Net, Canada
This Month in Photo of the Day: Images From National Geographic Books
Soul and muscle of their island, fishermen haul a net stretched between pitching dories. Home port for these men is Canada's eastern outpost—a rugged bulwark thrust into the North Atlantic.
From the upcoming National Geographic book National Geographic Image Collection, due fall 2009. Shop for other photography books from National Geographic.
