En Garde, Golden Hour, Hoi An
Captured at sunrise along Hoi An’s Thu Bon River, a traditional Ro fisherman works beneath both a yellow-gold net and golden-hour light to round up fish caught during the night. With a long stick in hand, he appears just as much swordsman here as he does fisherman; a fencer with foil to corral fish.

About Artist
Matt Sievers
Hey, I'm Matt. Hailing from the Pacific Northwest (USA) but based in Vietnam, I am a travel, documentary and fine art photographer focused on capturing the beauty of Vietnam, SE Asia, the US West and beyond. More than the places you go, it is hopefully the people you meet along the way, calling each one home, that leaves the greatest impression. For me, that has always been the true gift of travel: people, and the authentic interactions and conversations you keep with you from those journeys. It is often on those same travels, and through the same interactions and experiences with others, that I find myself imagining just how easily our lives could be switched—that my life could be theirs, and theirs mine? That idea remains a constant source of fascination to me, and a key driver of my creative interest and work.
