EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of life in the floating fishing village of Chong Kneas, nestled on Tonle Sap lake near Siem Reap, Cambodia. The image showcases a man gracefully maneuvering his canoe past one of the houses that make up this unique community. The vibrant colors and contemporary architecture of the house stand out against the serene backdrop of the lake, creating a striking contrast. This snapshot perfectly encapsulates both tradition and modernity coexisting harmoniously in this Southeast Asian gem. As you gaze at this photograph, you can almost feel yourself transported to this enchanting place where homes are built on stilts above water, blending seamlessly with their natural surroundings. The tranquility exuded by the scene is palpable; it's as if time slows down within these floating walls. The image not only highlights the beauty of Chong Kneas but also pays homage to its resilient people who rely on boats as their primary mode of transportation. It serves as a reminder that even in an ever-changing world, there are still places where simplicity reigns supreme. Jane Sweeney/Robert Harding's skillful lens has captured a moment frozen in time – an invitation for us to embark on our own journey through this corner of Asia.
