Bali Rice Terrace

To visit some of the famous Balinese Rice Terraces was on top of our list for this travel. From Ubud, were we stayed for a few days, the Tegallalang Rice Terraces were the closest and the easiest to reach with the motorbike. Of course we went there early morning to avoid the crowds of tourists. That payed off. We got no people at all, payed no entrance fee and found still some fog in the valley, wich made it more mysterious. Still the athmosphere was far from the mind-blowing photos we new from some travel magazines. The vegetation period seems to make a big difference in how photogenic the scene is in total. At the time of our visit most of the fields were not ordert, just full of mud, some were irrigated and some, like in this photo, were in a very early stage of growth.

Nevertheless, I am very happy with this photo, which was one of the first I shot that day. It even got a frame, which I only do with photos that deserve a proper presentation.
