This week’s theme on Photohunters is ‘view’. For the theme I would like to share views from the country side. Perhaps it is mundane and commonplace to the people in my town and its vicinity. To photohunters from all over the world, the views here might be refreshingly different.. I hope :)

open burning

Open burning is often carried out as a cheap way to enrich the soil for replanting.

chickens and ducks

Chickens and ducks can be found almost everywhere.

view river side

The river is a very important means of communicating the people where roads are hard to come by and expensive to build.

All kinds of exotic stuff not normally found in towns are sold here.
