Hard to believe, but this is the cross river ferry, in Padang, West Sumatra. Padang is a sleepy, tropical port, & worth a day or two to explore.

The 2 mosques on the left, are made out of corrugated iron sheets.

This is an amazing spot,Chris! And your photo describes very well that far and remote country! I would gladly visit it but I am not sure that I would accept to live there! I can feel the hot and humid temperature! The trees and the forrest look beautiful! Great shot! Michel

Here we have i mind thet sumatra is a jungle place, and here its true with this dominating jungle forest.
This is also interesting to look at this village and local ferry;
Compliments

Very good documentary shot! And I'm sure not much has changed since 1992! Good composition, but a wee bit over-exposed. Still, a very nice picture!

Hi Chris,
beautiful again. I love your images from Indonesia.
Thanks for sharing,
Nino

Very good representation of that area. (I am a bit skeptical of all the water right now, but I am sure you understand!!!!)
Looks like the "ferry" is gonna sink just any minute. I guess they made it to shore. Great shot and good share....:O)
