progress?

Is it progress to go from a swamp to rice fields?
I suppose the rice fields are more productive and it makes a great photo subject too.

No it is not the best land for rice---so much water is required !

Yes I think so. A lovely scene.

At least not paddy field terraces

Hmm, not sure about that one. Wetlands are so important.

I wouldn't have associated rice fields with your area - see what I learned today?

Terrific landscape

I like it, and it feeds a lot of people!

How beautiful, I love the way clouds are drawn in the sky.

I am a wetland enthusiast. We dry them and then we complain about climate change.

@haskar @merrelyn definitely - it distresses me that the swamp has been treated this way - rice and sugar cane now cover the entire area and it goes for kilometres 😞

Wonderful shot

I doubt it. Maybe necassary but also a lost. They burn the Amazon for the same reason.

It is if you are hungry. Maybe not so much if you are wildlife.

Too bad they couldn't have figured out something edible that already grew in the swamp. It's a hard call- the land is still wet, but not in its natural state. I probably would have left it a swamp and looked for an alternative place to grow the rice. It does make a nice black and white shot.
