Suspended wooden bridge - September 17, 2007

Swing suspension bridge in the Tsingy De Bemaraha National Park. The park was been made accessible by ANGAP, and they have done a superb work of making it easy -though still scary..- to visit these impressive rock pinnacles. This bridge crosses one deep canyon.

This was also shot during my walk on the beach. Malagasy children are beautiful and love to be photographed. When they see you with a camera, they all arrive and ask for pictures for the joy of seeing themselves on the LCD screen afterwards!

I like this shot of locals going up the Tsiribihina river. They use these sticks to push their boats forward as the river is rarely very deep.
