Photographer's Note
Stilt houses (also called pile dwellings) are houses raised on stilts (or piles) over the surface of the soil or a body of water. Stilt houses are built primarily as a protection against flooding, they also keep out vermin. In Panama still can meet these kind of houses on the banks of the rivers.

Hello Zbigniew,
Stilt houses always carry my interest.
Here they are also painted in beautiful colours.
Beautiful with the forest just behind the houses (maybe a mangrove forest?)
I've heard about Bocas del Toro but haven't seen many pictures of it yet.
Best regards, Paul

Hi Zbigniew
Interesting to see silt houses in the Americas after all the ones in Indo-China. A good well composed photo with good colour and detail.

Urocze sa te kolorowe domki, ale ciekawe jakie zycie wioda ich mieszkancy? W Londynie na barkach nad rzeka mieszkaja najbogatsi ludzie, ale zupelnie inaczej jest w innych krajach.
Zdjecie oddaje atmosfere spokoju, jaka musi odczuwac wedrowiec natknawszy sie na to miejsce.
Pozdrawiam
Kasia

Hi Zbigniew
An unexpected sight from central America which resembles water villages in south east Asia. Nice reflections with good sharpness. Tfs!
