Bangladesh Trip (May 2009)

Fish flapping in an indoor fish market A fish monger captured deep in contemplation. Modern meets traditional in a rickshaw wallah speaking on a mobile in Dhaka Taken from the train on the way to Chittagong, a look at the perils of crossing a river Taken by Zaheed Hafiz, a water buffalo grazes on rice paddy\'s in the Bangladeshi heartland A woman on her way to work A lone boatwoman on a lake in Capthai River boats idle in Capthai A little inspiration from Kwality milk Buddhist temples near Rangamati Boy surveys the landscape and finds only rice! A public works project to encourage visitors to keep nature clean Trying to keep up with a running lamb A pious man moving with haste! A river boat in Rangamati Taking a respite from the midday sun

Notes

This album captures the highlights of my trip to Bangladesh in 2009. It was my first time traveling outside of the capital city Dhaka. I visited Cox's Bazaar, Rangamati, Capthai and Chittagong. I was fortunate to travel with a group of my in-laws. We saw the country by rail, jeep and bus. It was an eye opening experience for me and a welcome respite from the heat of Dhaka.
