hot and dusty roads, a photo from Preah Vihear, East

Photographer's Note

On the photo you can see one of the incomplete bridges we had to pass between the dusty, sandy tracks leading from Sra Eng to Preah Vihear city. In the workshop some of the places where the jungle was burning we passed.

Hello Gerrit,
A good composition from this stretch of tough road. One friend was close to you and another on the far side of the "tunnel" created by the leaning trees.
Regards,
Gert

Goedemiddag Gerrit,

Dat jullie hier even moesten behendig zijn lijkt me duidelijk.
De weggespoelde loopbrug moet dringend hersteld worden, wil men hier fietsers en voetgangers laten overgaan.
Ik mij inbeelden dat dergelijke reizen per fiets soms voor verrassingen te komen staan.
IK vind uw foto echt de moeite waard.
Heerlijk foto werk, bedankt.

Groeten uit Oost-Vlaanderen,
John

Pozdrav.

Interesantan pogled i trenutak, dobar tekst ...
Lep tunel od drveca i drveni most, dobro pokazano sa lepim bojama, kontrastom, perspektivom i uhvacenim trenutkom sa biciklistima.
Dobar rad, lepa fotografija i secanje sa biliklistickog putovanja.
Lepa fotografija u radionici.

Zelim vam sve najbolje.
Paja

Hi Gerrit
Lovely photo, the wooden bridge leads the eye through the natural tunnel made of growing vegetation. Including the people makes the viewer feel as if they were about to walk into the image.
Best wishes
Kasia

Hallo Gerrit,
Het lijkt wel een hindernissenparcours.
Je bevond je echter wel in een vrij afgelegen streek van Cambodja.
Mooi compositie met de overhangende takken.
Toen ik in Cambodja was (jan.-feb.2020) heb ik massa's brandende velden gezien. Het leek op dat vlak niet de beste periode van het jaar om het land te bezoeken.
Vele groeten, Paul

Hallo Gerrit,
Een mooie gezicht op dit kleine houten bruggetje, de stoffige paden en de dichten struiken eromheen. Het warme zonlicht is ook erg aangenaam. Mooi werk.

Hi Gerrit
The ramp approaching the bridge is not one to stay mounted for crossing. A good photo on the road.
cheers

Hi Gerrit
A shaded scene nicely framed and well exposed while the surrounding adds interest showing the reality of rural Cambodia; dusty and humid. The bikers seem to add the final touch at the same time lead smoothly into the whole scene and the strong contrast gives an instant lift. Well done
Best regards

Hi Gerrit,
A true adventure for bikers with such a road ! Well photographed, good perspective and rendering with this light contrast, tfs.

Hello Gerrit,

You spotted a perfect location for a photograph, the broken bridge, the cyclist and the arch of trees, all combining for a great composition. The second cyclist draws our attention onwards.
Was the jungle purposely being burnt?
At this time when we are trying to reverse global warming by planting trees, this is so sad!

My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Dag Gerrit

Mooie foto van reizigers "on the road"...en wat voor een 'road'! Je ziet het zweet op de rug staan! Goede positie ook van de eerste fietser als richtpunt.
