EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, captured by Sergio Pitamitz/Robert Harding, transports us to the mesmerizing onion floating fields of Inle Lake in Shan State, Myanmar (Burma), Asia. The image showcases a stunning blend of natural beauty and human ingenuity. In this picturesque scene, we see a young girl standing outside on one of the floating islands that dot the lake's surface. With vibrant colors all around her, she is surrounded by lush greenery and crystal-clear water. This region is known for its unique farming technique where vegetables like onions are grown on these floating fields. The photograph beautifully captures the essence of daily life in this part of Asia. It portrays a woman transporting harvested onions using traditional means of transportation - a wooden boat propelled by an oar. The tranquil waters serve as both a means for travel and an essential resource for irrigation. As we delve into this image, it becomes evident that agriculture plays a vital role in sustaining communities here. The hardworking Burmese people have mastered innovative methods to cultivate crops amidst challenging geographical conditions. Through this remarkable snapshot, we gain insight into the rich cultural heritage and harmonious coexistence between humans and nature found within Southeast Asia's hidden gems like Inle Lake. It serves as an invitation to explore these lesser-known travel destinations where tradition meets contemporary practices against breathtaking backdrops such as floating fields and serene lakescapes.
