shaggy1969 Posted January 25, 2014 Author Share Posted January 25, 2014 What brought the smile Shaggy? The pump girl or what ever that is hanging on the back? Definitely the dainty little thing balancing on the front wheel whilst tanking the tractor. I did wonder what they were going to be using the old tree roots for though.Have seen some very nice furniture made from them before. ^^ Great cattle scene btw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dancealot Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Imagine working like this, living like this and then not getting paid the meagre sum you're owed . . . I imagine the people in your beautiful photo think about their salary and the heat. When the job is finished they will be with their families after a hard days of work. The guy in front needs to join his fellow workers but nevertheless he grants you this moment, to take a photo. Thank you MJP, it's a very enjoyable scene.

My wife won't stay for 5 minutes and just find an excuse to scoot off... I totally understand, afterall she grow up in the stick. The only times she would stay for days during harvest is because i provide booze for the wholesalers and she would keep on asking me what is the harvest yield...because i would gift her 1 Baht gold for every harvest if i achieve my target tonnage . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egrets waiting for buffalo to show up! .. You are too modest, Jim. It was a cool shot Read again Jimmy, it's 3 pics for ฿600. Last year there was a tour van with 10 european tourist and the tour guide offered ฿200/photo to let them do the rice transplanting along side the locals... 4 locals shared ฿1'800 ! I invited them to my farm 300m away hoping i could earn some tourist money. But the moment i spoke in English, they just..... zoom off~ Between, i also like the sharpness and colour contrast.
