I recently stumbled upon a great gallery of photos entitled Rice: A Global Grain by Robb Kendrick/Aurora. Hosted by PhotoVoyage (which has plenty of other great galleries as well), the pictures are browsable by categories such as "Landscapes," "Consumers," and "The Growers." The photo here is of the 1200-year-old terraced rice paddies on the Philippines. Honestly, I'm finding it hard to write this post, as I keep going back to browse more of the photos. Most pictures have brief captions and the occasional fact about rice production, like the fact that Thailand leads the world in rice production, shipping 4.5 million tons each year. Definitely worth a look.
