Backbreaking Work of Transplanting Rice

in #photography6 years ago

I took this image of the hard working locals transplanting rice in the mountain town of Pai, the workers are very poorly paid and this work is very tough on the body, i have so much respect for them making a living in this very difficult industry.

Thailand is the 2nd largest exporter of rice in the world behind India.

@readmetoday Nice shot!

Thanks! I always take photos of the rice fields they're always amazing with many different shades of green and great shots of the land they are grown on.

Classic and beautiful picture of Thailand! It's history, culture, gastronomy, and environment all wrapped into one.
