They spend the whole day rowing their boats with no place to return to and no home to rest in. When night comes the boat itself becomes their only shelter. To escape the mosquitoes they burn coils but the smoke and heat make the air heavy. The river water around them is filthy and filled with insects and swarms of aggressive mosquitoes that never seem to stop.
Life on these narrow wooden boats feels like a constant battle for survival. There is danger exhaustion and the risk of illness all around them yet their only goal is to stay alive. Even after such harsh nights they rise at dawn pick up their oars and return to work because their struggle is their everyday reality and their strength keeps them moving forward.
– Рейтинг фотографов по странам и городам строится на основе 3-х лучших фотографий автора и их относительной позиции в каждой отдельной номинации. Рейтинг в номинации "Мобильная фотография" учитывается в меньшей степени для формирования рейтинга. В списке по странам и городам показывается одна фотография автора с лучшим рейтингом.
– В списке опубликованы только работы которые прошли 2-й этап голосования.
– В рейтинге лучших фотографий учитывается только одна — самая сильная — работа от каждого автора. Даже если у фотографа опубликовано несколько работ, в расчёте позиции используется только одна, с наивысшим рейтингом. Поэтому порядок фотографий в списке может не совпадать с итоговым положением автора в рейтинге.
– The rating of photographers by countries and cities is based on the three best photos of the author and their relative position in each separate nomination. Rating in the nomination "Mobile Photography" is taken into account to a lesser extent for rating formation. The list by country and city shows one photo of the author with the best rating.
– Only those photos have been published in the list that passed the second stage of voting.
– Only one strongest photo from each author is counted in the Best Photos ranking. Even if a photographer has several published works, only the highest-rated one is used to calculate their ranking position. As a result, the order of photos in the list may not match the author's final ranking position.
