During a mini holiday with friends to Koh Lipe in July, I decided to have various impromptu (mostly candid) “calendar” photo shoots. Kylie was my favorite to photograph. Extremely photogenic, beautiful (and doesn’t know it), and very easy to work with (mostly because she wasn’t even posing for me).

Another of empty huts used to house the workers during collection time.

While resting on our hike.

Although, no one was going off to work in this photo. Quite the opposite. This was on the hike to the falls up at Stream Garden Retreat in Tung Lung.

One of the many huts scattered through the jungle and the rubber tree groves; ostensibly they are there to house the people who work on the rubber harvest. None of them were currently occupied.

Plastic jugs left over from the last collection of rubber.
