Java Sea 照片檔

An aerial photo of a river delta prominently protruding into the Java Sea, near Indramayu, West Java, Indonesia. The river headwaters are from inland volcanoes and the river flows through a narrow coastal plain that is completely developed into rice paddies. Flood waters cause extensive erosion and the river is heavily laden with fine silt and mud sediments. Plumes of fine sediment are seen discharging through the delta and mixing with ocean water of the Java Sea. A fine layer of cloud adds to the oil painting look of this landscape photograph.
