This does not look like you could ride in it unless you were horizontal

Oh no, you very much can!
You basically hang your legs out of the back or fold your legs and sit inside
And the front would be either bulls or horses (less likely)
It is an actual working model, just cleaned up
HOUSE BOAT
On the same lake we saw earlier, this boat was docked.
These are called House-Boats which are quite unique to the backwaters.
They are basically luxury houses on a boat with 3 rooms, kitchen, jacuzzis, etc.. fully air conditioned..
Most of the time the boat will be on the move... slowly all across the lake which is around 20 acres or so with a small island in between and passes through canals.
Quite a trip.. Unfortunately we did not have sufficient time to stay on one of these..
About the pic, i think it's come out quite nicely![]()
Nice colors... what was post processing?? any HDR???
Pat in NH
So we spent an entire day at the hotel due to the rains...
The next day we decided to get out what ever the conditions were..
First stop was at the Bird Sanctuary...

After taking the image i realized my focus was on his eyes so the DOF blurred the rest of the fly..
Shot at f5.3 on the 70-300 VR
The first bird after we entered the sanctuary..
It's called a snake-neck something..

As this is the breeding season most of the birds were busy building nests & looking for food
It looks like an Anhinga aka Snakebird.
