The water taxi

The water taxi
Sunderbans, Bay of Bengal. India. The islands here are of silt washed down by the Ganges and Brahmaputra. They are prone to floods and erosion. Global warming will exteminate them. People and tigers, which swim from island to island, coexist in this fragile environment.

Great shot. Delightful shot, The deck of the boat looks very unsafe. I guess it is one of those 'travel at your own risk' situations
