Water frontage.


There is no place like home.


A small house on the Mekong flood plain, central Cambodia. (Photo taken September 2006)


In the wet season, this house is well located to take advantage of fishing activities. During the dry season, however, this house overlooks a dry and dusty plain. By December of 2006, all the water had gone there was barely enough feed for a buffalo.


As you can see from the construction of the house, people here are very poor ... although they can somehow afford television.
