This is green. Adjust your monitor accordingly.

The great Maejo University wind farm.


The reason for the yearly Asian brown cloud. Each year millions of acres are burned like this to make gleaning mushrooms, plants and animals easy when the rains come. The mature trees survive, but not much else does.

The network of waterways and canals in this country to get water to the rice fields is completely mind boggling. Several hundred years in the development. Nearly all entirely gravity fed. I saw one place where 4 water channel bridges, one above the next, were over the main canal. In some places the water access is so complex, the how to get water and when and the cooperation involved is considered a valuable family asset and heirloom passed from one generation to the next.

Can anybody see the head of the snake tilted to the side? I'm told it's a little obscure. Also it's interesting that the snake is near pure green in travel mode yet when confronted it does a sort of puffery thing and all those camouflage markings show up.
