A Bit of Background
There is usually a back story to the images that I post. Like the one above. So, yes, I was pausing to catch my breath near 7 mile camp on the Ledo Road when I heard the rumble of a truck coming, and then I saw it was a rattan truck loaded with people, and packages, and lots of cane, so I got out my camera and took a picture.
And then I flipped the camera and took a landscape image (above) as the truck got closer. And I remember thinking, "What a great truck". And so I waited a bit, until it was right on top of me and I could see the faces of the driver and the passengers–and then took this. Which is one of my all-time favorite "people and plants–in a hurry" shots.
