This photo taken on June 20, 2017 shows people watching on fishing boats during the open harbor ceremony marking the end of the spring fishing ban and the opening of the fishing season on Poyang lake, in China's central Jiangxi province. The ceremony dates back 400 years and has been re-enacted in recent years in an effort to preserve ancient customs. Poyang lake is China's largest freshwater lake.
