Mekong Delta Ferry woman, Vietnam. – Nikon F4 24mm

21st April 1994

Back in ’94 the Mekong Delta in Vietnam was a haven away from travellers. I saw only one other westerner in the time I was there. The vast sprawling network of rivers and tributaries spreads like a web across the land, and many was the time I had to balance my motorbike precariously in the middle of small rowing boat to cross yet another part of this mighty river. On this occasion I’d managed to dump the bike and just go out on the delta with this charming and singing ferry-woman.
