Place. Giam River is at Padawan area of Borneo highland and 1 hour drive out of Kuching. It is predominantly Bidayuh village based on farming and fishing.

The village folks started work early in the morning and by mid-morning, the boats returned to rest at this spot. This time, the shot was chosen to have a more balanced exposure tone and to have a darker feel of the forest surrounding. To reduce glare of reflection, the camera with polariser was set on tripod near water surface. Thank you for viewing.

HI Bill,
Excellent close-up on these boats. You managed so well the light, here!
Beautiful contrasted colors and translucid water. Very nicely done! Annie

Hi Bill,
A colourful image on the river Giam. A fine composition. The low POV makes it an attractive picture my friend!

Hi Bill,

i like the colours here...every single subject with its own colour character. the colour of the river/creek bed is what i like most....must be due to dead leaves.

Hi Bill,

It is worth it to trip 1 hour to get this lovely scene . .
Seems the river is clean and not polluted . . Did you have a chance to fish there?
Beautifully composed . .

Hello Bill. You'll need at least D300 with Live View to capture this without getting yourself wet. Superb low angle shot exposing the small area inside the boat with stunning colors. Nice warm light in super sharp capture. Well done and thanks for sharing. Jusni

Hi Bill,
I would love to take a trip down the swift torpical river in one of these lovely Malaysian vessels.
Wonderful clear light with excellent sharp details this lovely river image.
Regards, Tom

Exposure perfect resulting in well saturated colours. Not an easy picture with the trees and light coming through. Good job.
