[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Near one of the many island in Na-Trang bay the local transportation is a woven baskets used as a boat
It’s a unique way of rowing with no leader
In this photo the polarizer become very handy

This is a very very nice shot. The boat (?) itself is very unique and the green water looks very clean and clear. But I wish hat person wearing red shirt was not concious that you were taking the pic.

This is really a very special shot. Something unique to the location and well captured. The diagonal leads the eye to the main subject which is clear and brightly coloured. Well done Yuval.

Great sharpness, and you have captured the colours well. The water is so clear and crisp. Love the water splash of the drop that's fallen from the oar.
Any idea why the ladies wear masks.

I very much like the simplicity of this photo in composition, as well as color. Nice job showing people involved in their daily activities.

The boat is called “thuyen thung” – loosely translated as “basket boat”. Maneuvering it is a bit tricky. You have to quiver the paddle back and forth like crazy instead of making separate strokes. Great shot.

Yuval, This is definately a photo that is UnIqUe enough to qualify for my "AnYtHiNg ExTrEmElY UnIqUe" folder. I shall try to stop by soon and add points that I am presently "fresh out of." Thanks for sharing and God's best to you, Tim

this is a good shot
very crisp and colourful, the relatively calm surface of the water makes for a great background

Good shot

I would think it would be a very slow way of rowing from one point to another! Great shot, and an interesting note explaining it.

Very nice composition. I wonder about the masks - against pollution? against excessive sun? against "paparazzi"?

You did a good work ..

if i remember correctly, those boat are used for transporting people back and forth to the resturant that sell live fish/sea food. you buy the fish, they bring you and your fish to the resturant and cook it for you.

and most reason people wear mask/gloves in vn even though it's really hot is for sun protection. they dont want to get dark. and the water is definately very clear
