Bonjour Laurent
Une très belle composition de ces maisons flottantes bien cadrées avec de belles couleurs et de jolis reflets.
A travers cette belle image tu rends, à ta manière, un hommage à tous ces pauvres gens qui n'ont pas été épargnés.
Merci pour le partage et bonne journée.

Hello laurent,

Beautiful reflections and what a place to live! I imagine the houses are built high because of the rain or flooding in this area. Excellent image with very good details and light. The reflections balance the image well and add an interesting focal point. Nice work.

Salut Laurent,
Tu nous refais le coup des reflets dans l'eau version birmane.
Ceci dit autant l'eau peut être douce et belle à regarder autant elle peut être dévastatrice.

bonjour laurent
après les événements politiques, le Myanmar a encore été touché par un désastre dont on ne connait pas encore la réelle ampleur, la junte étant plus préoccupée par le résultat des élections que par la détresse de son peuple.

Have a nice weekend,danos

oui,c'est une véritable catastrophe,ce magnifique pays semble les enchaîner les unes sur les autres en ce moment!heureusement que le cyclone est passé loin de ces fragiles maisons,on imagine sans peine qu'elles n'auraient pas résisté!L'atmosphère est si calme,les couleurs si douces,un lac,des montagnes,des maisons sur pilotis,tout pour faire une sorte de paradis terrestre,et pourtant...

Hi Laurent,
really nice shot of the village.
Indead it is a desaster about the cyclone and even worse is how the junta is coping with the situation.
Have a nice weekend,

Bonjour Laurent,
J'ai entr'aperçu ta photo ce matin, mais pas le temps de la commenter.
J'y reviens avec plaisir et je prends le temps de lire ta note avant de revenir à ta photo.
C'est vrai que lorsque l'on regarde ces constructions sur pilotis, on imagine qu'elles ne peuvent offrir aucune réticence lorsque la nature se déchaîne.
Bravo pour ce bel hommage.
Bien à toi,
Marianne

Hi Laurent,

it's a plesant image...that kind we would like to see from Myanmar. You found an interesting point for shooting. The relfection was well managed. Top quality sharpness and exposure control are the final touch. I'm really sorry for all those people. Sad for our history, the worst for who is there suffering this natural catastrophe and for the stupid government.
Regards,
Carlos

Laurent,
the beauty of this shot doesn't reflect at all what the people of Myanmar have to go through with their more than despicable political leadership. Even with all the international aid coming to help the people there is little hope that they really will get it.

Je suis consterné par l'ampleur des dégâts et le nombre des victimes, c'est franchement désolant.
Les habitants de ce village lacustre ont eu la chance d'être épargnés, j'avoue que j'ai de la peine à formuler une critique, mais ton image est très appréciable.

Salut Laurent,

Did you get any opportunity to visit disaster area affected by cyclone Nargis? News are very sad as you know.

Your photo shows local conditions and their solutions building their house only using thin wooden columns that seems they are note enough strong. Your frame is in excellent clarity and sharpness with natural colors, reflection as a photograph. Congratulations, and hope they can recover their aches shortly. Hope you were safe too during the cyclone.

Amicalement,

Ertugrul

Ciao Laurent ,
che disastro e' capitato ad una popolazione gia' sfortunata , speriamo si possa risolvere , certo che il numero delle vittime' e' impressionate, e le autorita' non ne vogliono sapere di aiuti.
tornando alla foto e' bellissima con questa casa costruita sull'acqua con dei bei colori e ottimi riflessi.

Bonjour Laurent,
Superbe lumière comme j'ai souvent pu le constater sur les photos de cet endroit. Heureusement que le cyclone n'est pas passé dans ce coin car ces maisons sur pilotis ont vraiment l'air très vulnérables. belle compo avec de beaux reflets et le linge qui ajoute une petite touche de couleur.
