You can't actually see the car driving through this flood in Kuala Belait, one night in 1989, but you know it's there by the trails of the tail lights and the plumes of water on each side.
In this photo, part of my crew heads home across a stretch of lake bridging in Brunei, 1989. The lakes were probably old sand quarries.
We wondered where this jungle railway went when we stumbled across it while laying out our survey grid. It just seemed to start in the middle of the jungle.
This image is typical of the jungle canopy - all the branches and leaves at the top of the trees and barren trunks all the way to the ground.
Today's photo is of the recording setup for an LVL shot somewhere in the jungle of Brunei inland from Seria. The crew member in the red overalls in the background is most probably checking the connection of some component of our spread - either a geophone or an explosives connection. They guy in the foreground is standing by the triggering device.
I never got to see the bridging crews installing this lake bridging so I've no clue how they did it. I know in places the water was over six feet…
