On the other side of the road, the locals resorted to fishing nets for the remaining camarons (prawns).

Let us not waste water. Let us protect the planet and avoid these situations in the future. Anyway, thanks for taking the effort to shoot these pictures.

Well said. :)

Update: Added a photo taken in August 2010 (with the E72) when the lake was full.
