    Faces of Bungin Island, Sumbawa, Indonesia

    I was overwhelmed by this place that I visited a few weeks ago. The photographs seemed to take themselves. They are just as they came off the camera except for some cropping and resizing.

    The island is of the order of 20 acres in area with thousands of people living there. The houses are on stilts because much of the land is covered by water at high tide.

    Thanks Greg. It looks like the images were showing for me only. They should be there for all now.

    Nice work, Tony. Good colours, engaging poses, and all sharp. They seem like very friendly people, all having a good time. I can't go past the little guy in the last shot, though. What does the raised fingers mean for him?

    Wonderful images, Tony, which for me bring alive the people and the place.

    Thanks for sharing.

    Travis, I saw those earlier. They were very interesting and inspired me to submit these.
