Looking Back: Yangon, Burma

I took this picture from the decks of the wonderful ship Nautica, which belongs to the Oceania fleet. I was working as a lecturer on a 35-day cruise from Bangkok to Rome. Needless to say, a spectacular trip. We stayed a couple of days in Burma/Myanmar, and the several of the posts above are from there. This woman was rushing to work along the docks, with her umbrella shading her from a sun that was already becoming intense in the morning. The colours and the lines of the railway tracks made a nice composition.
