Floating village, Cambodia

May-2013

It's hard to convey how big this mighty river really is, but spot the tiny fishing boat in the distance, where this arm of the river joins the main stream and then gauge the height of the embankment nearby. It gives an idea of how much the river swells during rainy season; carrying sediments and nutrients that sustain rich ecosystems, fisheries and agriculture that millions of often the poorest people in Southeast Asia depend on.
