Small ferries ply back and forward across the Buriganga river at Sadarghat, Old Dakha. The larger ferries in the background carry up to 6000 passengers through the delta waterways

Hi Elaine
Not really served by weather conditions here
Anyway you turned it in a good daily life situation and showed us the intense boat activity in this Dakkha harbor
A rather unusual destination
Have a nice WE, nice to see you back on TE

Hi Elaine!
the big one loks like the IWT ferry I took from Sittwe to Mrauk U last year, and it's a great shot with the mist and many small boats.
Greetings from Bangkok,happy to have a few more days at Cha Am beach,before returning to cold Germany.......

Hi Elaine
It's interesting that you have capitalised on the unfriendly weather condition to your favour and brought this scene to life using the available elements to greatest effect. The activity on the water, a slice of daily life as main focal is so well captured, nicely detailed and good color renditon, while the pretty mist in the distant turns this to something special. A quality shot indeed. Congrats
Kind regards

Hi Elaine
You have been there:)?? I'd love to!
A great daily scene, with the little boats carrying the people, the old ferry and then the city in background. I really like it! I'm really late watching the gallery, but I hope you'll post more:)!
