Preparing the Rice Paddy, by Jim Perceval
Award Winner | Photo of the Day | June 12, 2010
The process of paddling a rice field, is a miserable job in the muck that is paddled, As i watched as the day progressed, more and more birds (Egrets I believe) showed up for a feast, by the end of the day hundreds of these white birds where swarming around the paddling machine… quite a site to see. This photograph was taken in Songkhla Province, Thailand.

wonderful
Not really sure about this photo…. What am I supposed to be looking at? The title and composition would suggest it is the person working in a field surrounded by birds, but the focusing is on the water in the foreground drawing the eye away.
Another great post, completely worth reading, so thanks for posting!
