    RICE-TERRACES AT THE FOOT OF AGUNG VOLCANO,UBUD-TEGALALANG, BALI, INDONESIA
    Rice-terraces at the foot of the Agung volcano. The complex architecture of the paddy-fields requires ceaseless attention and represents a single work of art, painstakingly created with pick and foot. Even in the dry season a thousand-year-old system of aqueducts and dykes ensures a plentiful supply of water. The walls are clay. They are shaped according to tradition and experience. To resist the pressure of the water even with heavy rain. Balinese society is a co-operative community that is based on agriculture. The cultivation of rice dictates the annual rhythm. Planting, irrigating and harvesting requires communal effort, that extends beyond the individual family. Everyone is obliged to play their part in the joint achievement.

    The rice-fields of Bali are also a source of protein. When the moon is in the right phase the Balinese go down at dusk to the irrigated but as yet unplanted paddies. By the light of their paraffin lamps they use wooden pincers to catch little eels and gather fat edible snails. (FOTO: DUKAS/MICHAEL FRIEDEL)

    MEN PLOUGHING A RICE FIELD WITH WATER-BUFFALOES,KLUNGKUNG, BALI, INDONESIA
    Much rain - much fertility - and hard labour for man and beast. While the sun is shining on the south coast, clouds are driven on to the high volcanic peaks and shed their rain. The loamy soil, though rich in minerals, is hard to plough. In pouring rain two water-buffaloes pull the plough through the heavy earth. (FOTO: DUKAS/MICHAEL FRIEDEL)

    Before the rice-shots are planted in the irrigated fields the ducks gorge themselves on snails and worms. From the day they are born Balinese ducks are used to seeing a long stick with a bunch of feathers on it. So well trained are the ducks that they stay near the stick, even if the duck-herd is nowhere around. (FOTO: DUKAS/MICHAEL FRIEDEL)

    The ladies of the village. A procession through the rice fields on the way to a small Hindu temple. They are asking the gods to favour a good harvest. Bringing offerings to the gods is part of daily life. The women of Bali spend one-third of their working hours preparing and distributing votive gifts. They use food, especially rice, fruit, flowers and eggs, to create these magnificently colored works of art for the temple festivals, to give pleasure to men, gods and spirits. After the ceremony and the procession the fruits will be eaten. That's sure.
