Last weekend, on Saturday, I went on a boat trip out to an island off the mouth of the great Amazon River. I took some great shots of the riverside, but what struck me was these little houses on stilts beside the river every few hundred meters at some points. The people who live there have only canoes as their means of transportation ,and I suppose fishing and some fruits from the island as their food. I also took some pictures of kids out on their canoes following our bigger boat. I'll upload that later.
We spent around 2 hours on the island and a few hours on the boat ride under a very hot, tropical rainforest sun, but it was definitely worthwhile. Oh, and this was one of the first few days testing out my brand new digital camera, the Sony H2. Great camera. I'm looking forward to more beach shots soon.
As for now, I'll be uploading some shots from the boat ride.
Belíssima foto. Já havia visto várias paisagens da amazônia, inclusive com palafitas como esta, porém nenhuma com atmosfera tão densa quanto a sua. Parabéns pelo olho apurado e pela belíssima composição.
The only thing I would have liked to change in the photo is perhaps a bit more focus on the house and also a bit of a lighting change since it seems that the sun is reflecting a crazy amount of light off of the river....I realize these things aren't exactly in your control...well, maybe the focus.
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article.
In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.

I really do love the pic, though.
