Les méandres du fleuve Syr-Daria en Asie centrale semblent dessiner des volutes de fumée. Sur les rives s’étendent des champs cultivés grâce à la proximité de l’eau. L’une des photos montre notamment un canal, on dirait un raccourci sur la berge mais c’est très certainement utilisé pour l’irrigation.
Framing is everything, the Syr Darya river at two zoom levels: the winding rivers remind me of wisps of smoke. At the borders of the river you can see the #CropArt where humans have naturally started growing food using the life-giving water a river brings. Note how on one picture a river bend seems to have been cut off by a canal, it looks like a shortcut but undoubtedly used for irrigation.
