| View of fields in China December 1979 |
Yes, that is smog on the horizon in 1979. I can only imagine how much thicker it is now.
A photo of me standing at the border can be seen in this post.

It's a beautiful picture even with the smog in the background. I actually thought it was fog, which would have been much nicer.
ReplyDeleteThe rice fields remind me a bit of the cranberry bogs here in Wisconsin.
ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting photo!!
ReplyDeleteDoes the area have a odor?
ReplyDeleteSo. Much. Water!
ReplyDeleteAmazing photograph! Somehow I don't think of rice fields as having roads through them and houses built right on the edges. Amazing!
ReplyDeleteDitto what Katherine said. I remember the smog of Los Angeles in the early 70's. Thank goodness people are getting smarter and more careful with mother earth. Pictures seen now do not have smog showing up now. (not sure if it comes in due to weather changes....) Interesting look at rice fields.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful photo! China's pollution problem has been pretty infamous. http://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/aug/14/air-pollution-in-china-is-killing-4000-people-every-day-a-new-study-finds
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photo ---- I love how a bit of the pine tree near you made it into the edge.
ReplyDeleteIt's an interesting way to live for sure. I'm guessing flooding is a common problem not just for the paddys, but for the houses that are there too.
I've always found rice growing to be interesting. I wonder why each one has a house standing in the water, or over it.
ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting photo! I wonder how it looks now?
