So one last photo of a karst limestone island from Phang Nga Bay and then off to new locations. Well, two actually, a black-and-white and a color rendering of the island.
There must be a bazillion islands in Phang Nga Bay, some of them habitable, most of them not and, of course, the one featured in the James Bond movie, ‘The Man with the Golden Gun’.
Not living on the edge as in poverty, or as in all the violence that seems to envelope the world these days though there are obvious parallels to the life and future of this flower I captured living in a crack in the limestone rock of one of the karst islands of Phang Nga Bay.
As I mentioned yesterday, the rain in Phang Nga Bay was a short lived event. In today’s photo the visibility is opening up though I can’t say if this was because the shower was moving away from us or we were moving away from the shower.
Today’s photo is a vertical framing taken inside a hong. I think it better demonstrates the scale of the space.
Having cruised into Phang Nga Bay, our captain took us to our first island. We would visit several that day. Today’s photo shows the way in to one of the ‘hongs’.
