A very nice concept for this image.  Unfortunately, the artifacts surrounding the fisherman and also each of his poles detract from the overall image, possibly caused by too much resaving and resizing of the original jpg.  They're not quite so obvious at smaller magnifications.

Bipin, I don't know what post processing software you have available to you, but I'm willing to bet that, whatever it is, you could create a pre-set for your raw files that would do a better job of giving you "normal" images than the in-camera jpgs and still leave you room for more serious tweaking for select images. You could set your software to apply the pre-set upon image import or to a batch of images so you wouldn't have to apply it to each individual image.

stop and take some shots.

I took the Fisherman's permission for the shots with the Pentax K-5
IIs and the Tamron 17-50/2.8. Here is the photo - PPd a bit with the
help of Larry Colen. The exif data is intact.

I tend to expose to the left, and to keep the Fisherman nondescript I
kept him in the "dark". I also shoot 88% JPEGs as I do not want to
waste time on PP. I will resort to RAW (DNG) only on difficult photo
shoots - mixed lighting (cannot get WB right), foggy, damp and lousy
weather etc.

Comments and criticisms are welcome.
