while walking on the shore, i saw this beacon-like figure from afar. i went near to find out it was the figure of our lord, perhaps to guide & bless our fishermen as they set out to sea.
All tour guides in cambodia must study to take an official test to get certified by the government. It's very expensive and Cambodians will save money for years just to pay the certification fee. The qualifications are very difficult. If they pass they receive a special uniform with this badge. Our guide was very proud of his, as he should be.

These gentlemen made our stay safe and happy. They climbed trees for coconuts and introduced us to their children and helped us make meals. I gave them my Tevas. It wasn't a fraction of enough.

Clarence here guided me around town. Though there was a sort of language barrier between us, he was extremely skillful in knowing what I had in mind by reading my rudimentary sign language and getting the gist of my tagalog.
Here he is, hanging upside down on a hanging bridge.

"At Ready" mixed media dog sculpture by Tina Guide. Looking out across The Shops on Butterfield at Yorktown Center.
A small guide to a small UDC, population only c20,000 at the time of publication, that sat in the South Lancashire industrial area and that was closely bordered by neighbouring Tydlesley, Westhoughton and Leigh, all to the west of Manchester although oddly, the town's postal address was Manchester. The guide follows the usual format with a look at the town's history, a description of its governance and amenities and then a section on the town's industries.
Although being an established part of the Cotton industry area the town also had a claim to being a major manufacturing town for nails, nuts and bolts - a trade that stretched back centuries here thanks to local coal outcrops and indeed, the town still had some colliery actvity at the time. I'm slightly surprised that one local name I know, Stothert's of Atherton, manufacturing chemists and of soft drinks, are conspicuiously absent from the guide. Equally absent is the important local transport operator, the Lancashire United Transport undertaking who were based in Howe Bridge to the south of the town. Indeed the trolleybus overhead of their associated concern, South Lancashire Transport, and whose route ran through the town are seen in the photograph of the church despite this form of transport being abandoned in 1958 and replaced by LUT buses.
The town had grown considerably with much new post-war council housing on estates such as Hag Fold to the north of the town and indeed this, in time, would jump the railway and expand right to the borough's northern boundary. The Urban District Council had been formed in 1894 and was abolished in the 1974 local government reform passing to the new Metropolitan Borough of Wigan despite some local opposition as it was felt there were stronger ties to neighbouring Bolton or Salford.
A lone dog surveys the scene as the photographer finds a quiet moment to take a view of the town's Parish Church. The trolleybus overhead of the South Lancashire Transport's system is in place, this was abandoned in 1958, and the pole carries a GEC mercury street lighting lantern. In the distance a new concrete lamp post column carries another two of GEC's products.
