One of the most spectacular rice field terraces is Tegallalang area, just about 15 minutes drive outside of Ubud.
I was in Rice Lake this morning.
This is the month of North Vancouver visit for myself. :o)
The sky is cloudy and grey. The light is flat and not exactly good for landscape pictures.
Rice Lake is a very popular location for fresh water fishing. We see a lot of people around the lake holding the rod and patiently waiting on the fish.
Happy Saturday and Sunday to my friends!
Picture taken as part of my serie about the manual workers in Philippines.
Dionisio is a rice farmer in Siaton, Negros Oriental, Philippines.
He is 68 and still hard working.
We met him during a little road trip in Siaton and he nicely came to talk to us.. After a lot of laughs he proposed me to come back someday for taking pictures when he will be planting rice.
As planned we came back and took him in picture while he was working with his workers.
That was such a nice moment!
We will see each other again soon!
Please don't hesitate to visit my facebook page :
these were taken in april - and the terraces are filled with water in preparation for the crops that will be planted may.
Yuanyang Rice Terraces, located on the southern slopes of Ailao Mountain in Yuanyang County (part of Honghe Hani Autonomous Prefecture) and located in the south of Yunnan Province has been a masterpiece of the ingenuity of the Hani people for generations. Southern Ailao Mountain, with this typical tiered landscape, is famed for its unique frontier scenery.
The Hani people's ancestors came to this steep mountain area 2,500 years ago. In their struggle against the difficult terrain they successfully established the terraces, where they grew rice in order to make a living. The technology of developing fertile land on rugged mountain slopes didn't spread all over China and Southeast Asia until 14th century. The creativity of the Hani people turned this mountain area into one of artistic beauty. In recognition, the Ming Dynasty emperor granted the title of 'Skillful Sculptor' to Hani people and their good reputation was passed down from generation to generation. At present, known as 'land sculpture' the terraced fields have been being officially acknowledged by UNESCO as a World Cultural and Natural Heritage site.

Took a very early hike around Rice Lake this morning, trying to get a shot of some still reflections before the fishers ruin the stillness.
Rice paddies florish at Asuka, Japan, at the southern edge of the Yamato Plain. Japan's first permanent capital was established here in the 6th century AD.

i've visited curry's electricals. of the three possible freestanding electric cookers non were in stock and no delivery date could be given. with the way things are the cooker remains on hold for the forseeable future. let's just say it's the least of any of the current problems. it's almost rude on my part to even think of it as a problem more something to look forward to ...
ps i'm not recommending any of these cookery adventures. they suit my personal taste. photographing to encourage myself to eat more healthily ...
i've created a new group www.flickr.com/groups/cooking_is_my_hobby/ to gather ideas and encourage myself to continue with healthy eating by learning from others if you're interested in cooking, sometimes or a lot, you're always welcome ...

Two ladies harvesting the last of the rice for the season and some Sunday sliding. A bit lumpy with posts at the moment as having computer issues, don't we all.

One of my main goals of this year's trip to the Twin Ports was to chase Union Pacific's local from Duluth across Superior back to Itasca Yard after being stymied by both clouds and track work last year.
The UP has the smallest presence of the four remaining Class 1s in the area these days with no jobs based in Duluth proper and no trackage of their own. The UP's continued operation here is a legacy of the Chicago and Northwestern which the UP merged out of existence in 1995. Historically the trackage in Duluth and Superior belonged to Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis and Omaha Railway a 1700 mile Class 1 which was controlled by the CNW since 1883, officially leased in 1957 and merged out of existence in 1972. The Omaha Road, as it was known, had its own yard here in Rices Point and depot downtown, though they were accessed from Superior via the NP's Saint Louis Bay Bridge.
Today successor UP owns no trackage in Duluth proper and normally only comes over to the Zenith City twice a week unless a rare unit grain train shows up. Running as Y-IT61 (I believe) UP 506 (rebuilt GP38N originally a GP38-2 blt. Apr. 1974 as UP 2006) and 584 (rebuilt GP38N originally a GP38-2 blt. May 1980 as SP 4821) have three cars in tow as they snake slowly into CPKC's former Soo Line Yard here on Rices Point. They will drop off the three cars and pick up five before starting back east via BNSF's running track and the Grassy Point Draw to home rails in Superior for the run far across town back to the old CNW Itasca Yard.
Above and to the right of the locomotives notice then structure rising atop the hill above Duluth’s West End on a site once called Grand Mountain. The park and adjacent golf course were developed on land purchased with money donated by West End furniture dealer Bert Enger in 1921. His 1931 will included more money for the park’s development, and Enger Tower was built in the park in his honor. The 80 ft tall tower was built of locally quarried Blue Stone and at its peak is 530 ft above the lake. Interestingly the tower was dedicated by Crown Prince Olav and Crown Princess Martha of Norway on June 15, 1939. Today the park includes lovely gardens and the American-Japanese Peace Bell, a gift from Duluth’s sister city of Ohara-Isumi, Japan.
