japanese, vietnamese, & potatoes

this is one of my favorite shots (below). this was taken last 2003 at the Miarayon Region of the protected area of Mt. Kitanglad, when i was still working with the Information Division. at left is our researcher from the Department of Agriculture, Allan Bacho talking to our farmer-cooperator (right) in our project on White Potato Production. i dunno exactly what they're talking about, perhaps about potatoes..hehehe!

i have to wrap my camera with a cellophane coz of the fog... and look at those white potatoes...u dont see them right??? hehehe! of course coz they're rootcrops, but those two guys (left - allan, who looks like a japanese, right- farmer, looks like a vietnamese)were standing on that green potato fields.

i've been in the protected area three times and each time i was there, it was like always the first time.. the indigenous people and the way they lived fascinates me, and also the extremely cold weather.
