In Mai Chau, Vietnam, a farmer wearing a conical hat and a blue shirt squats on a cement block in the foreground of a rice paddy. The farmer is facing away from the camera and is wearing dark pants and brown boots. In the background, another person wearing a purple shirt and dark shorts operates a tiller in the muddy rice field. Behind the field, a traditional thatched-roof building stands, and a bridge spans a waterway. The landscape is characterized by lush green hills in the distance. Scattered on the ground in front of the farmer are a white tarp, pieces of broken cement, and a small blue and yellow box.
