Rubber Tapping - Nature's Sweet Symphony in Sumatra!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we witness the harmonious dance between man and nature as rubber tapping takes center stage in a lush Sumatran rainforest. The Para Rubber Trees, standing tall and proud like guardians of the forest, are ready to share their precious sap. As the sun peeks through the dense canopy, skilled hands delicately make incisions on these magnificent trees. With utmost care, they tap into the latex vessels without harming their growth - a true testament to sustainable farming practices. The air is filled with anticipation as small bowls eagerly await their sweet reward. Like tiny nectar-filled chalices, they collect every drop of liquid gold that drips from each tree.

She has created an ecosystem where humans coexist with wildlife and plants in perfect harmony.
