A Life's Work

AWARD WINNER: 02/24/2024 - 500px Global Photography Awards 2023 Top-30 Thu Sy Fish Basket Making: A few villages in northern Vietnam are famous for maintaining its traditional craft of manually producing bamboo underwater traps over the past more or less 200 years.The villages are collectively named Thu Sy because they all sit in the Thu Sy Commune in Hung Yen Province, about 54 kilometers to the southeast of capital Hanoi.In the rural tranquility occasionally disturbed by rooster crows and canine barks, craftspeople sit at their homes weaving traps from strips of bamboo and flexible wood of a palm species called calamus.The items, resembling an elongated spheroid, can be called fish traps for short but they can actually catch other aquatic creatures such as crabs and eels as the objects have two openings of different sizes that prevent the victims from escaping. BAMBOO BASKET VILLAGE Thu Sy Fish Basket Making: M463+V9, Khu đô thị Đại học Phố Hiến, Tiên Lữ, Hưng Yên, Vietnam

As You See It, So It Is

The world appears as a much different place from the air above us. As you see it, so it is. What vision does this convey for you?

Soy Sauce Factory-2

Captured some special moments here at Vietnam's Hung Yen Craft Village Soy Sauce factory! Soy sauce in Vietnam is known as tương or xì dầu, and the most popular type is light soy sauce. Vietnamese tương, however, has a distinctly different taste to its counterparts in other nearby countries. It's typically both lighter and thicker than Chinese light soy sauce, with a slightly sour taste, better complementing the gentle but complex flavors of Vietnamese cuisine.
Vietnamese soy sauce is also made differently to the soy sauces of other countries. Where Chinese soy sauce is made with wheat, this traditional Vietnamese type of soy sauce is made with glutinous rice instead, giving it a noticeably different taste.
The Hung Yen’s Craft Village produces arguably the most delicious soy sauce in Ban Township, Yen Nhan District, Hung Yen Province. In this factory, soybean mold is made from sticky rice spread on shallow bamboo baskets to incubate the mold for one week. Soybeans are then mixed in with the mold and transferred to ceramic jars with water and salt to ferment in the sun for 5 days with thorough stirring each morning. On day 5, the lid is left in place for 3 months to complete the fermentation process with only an occasional lift to see how it's brewing. This tradition has been going on here in this factory for more than 100 years.

Bamboo Forest of Mu Cang Chai

Bamboo Forest of Mu Cang Chai: Mu Cang Chi is not only known for its beautiful terraced rice fields but also this spectacular bamboo forest planted more than 60 years ago. And did you know bamboo is actually a type of grass? I didn't, but Daniel Kordon standing beside me as I took this shot shared that fact. It turns out bamboos are a diverse group of mostly evergreen perennial flowering plants making up the subfamily bambusoideae of the grass family poaceae. Now we all know! :D Nikon Z8 w/ Z 14-24mm f/2.8 S @ 14mm 1/100 sec f/5.6 ISO 1000
