Destroyers of Paradise

Taxi Boats in South Thailand. They take out the engines of old diesel trucks and put them into those boats - without a decent exhaust system. Extremely noisy, extremely dirty, completely destroying the beauty of this (otherwise) magnificent area. But what do they care about their precious nature, if they can make a few Baht carrying tourists around!? Sure, those boats look pretty on pictures. But they are the curse of South Thailand.

 

Selected to be the cover photo of High-Dynamic-Range (HDR) Group in August 2013.
