10 JULY 2011 - AMPHAWA, SAMUT SONGKRAM, THAILAND: People pray and present their alms to a Buddhist monk on the main canal in Amphawa, Thailand, about 90 minutes south of Bangkok. The Thai countryside south of Bangkok is crisscrossed with canals, some large enough to accommodate small commercial boats and small barges, some barely large enough for a small canoe. People who live near the canals use them for everything from domestic water to transportation and fishing. Some, like the canals in Amphawa and nearby Damnoensaduak (also spelled Damnoen Saduak) are also relatively famous for their "floating markets" where vendors set up their canoes and boats as floating shops.
