[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Speed boat with an outboard is a popular way to cover a lot of km quickly. The rivers of Borneo continue to be major transport routes.

The boat owner/drivers are local Dyak people, whose ancestors were the famous head-hunters in by-gone days. They concentrate very much when speeding along like this as hitting a submerged log is not a good idea. The rivers have resident crocodiles apparently but we didn't see any.

Hi Murray

Good panning to get the moving jetboat sharp, with excellent overall bg sharpness too. Tfs!

Hi Murray,

Great POV of this shot however I think the colour intensity is a little bit dull. I've added a workshop for you..take a look.:)
Anyway, TFS
