Crystal cascades. It is the wet season in Cairns Australia,with tropical downpours nearly every day, so I have been enjoying visiting some of the local waterfalls.

Cast nets are used to catch small fish, prawns and shrimps. These are then used as live bait to catch larger fish. This photo was taken on the Cairns esplanade in Australia.

A man throws a cast net into the water, hoping to catch prawns, shrimps or small fish to use as bait. You can just make out the head of a great egret at the bottom of the photo, which is hoping to get a share of the spoils.
