I really do wonder what that green stuff is, and what they do with it. Is it cultivated, or just picked in the wild?

Still trying to figure it out Sid. It's EVERYWHERE but no one seems to be able to tell me what it is. The locals who carry it speak a different Chinese that I don't understand...I'll try to find out...

I'm intrigued, they certainly seem to shift a lot of it! I noticed in one of the shots that the field was like rice paddy. Is it grown on its own or is in with the rice?

Have a go at smoking it & report back ok ?

I especially like #2. Perhaps try steepening the LAB curves?

Hey Gubbs...I saw them taking it out of the flooded field but I'm not sure what its purpose is...I really want to know because I take so many pictures of it...

Funny, Humungus...your Avatar needs a refill???

[damonff]

Hey Rutt!!!!! I'll try it...

My lab mate says its "pig grass". Apparently pigs in china are vegetarian... no fancy powdered grain feeds for them. They boil the grass down and feed it to the piggies.

[gubbs]

lot of pigs!

Thanks Erik...that would make sense...there's a pig farm across the street...thanks!

Thanks Erik...that would make sense...there's a pig farm across the street...thanks!You're welcome. But actually, thank you, from my colleague, OJ (his nickname), I've shown him a few of your photos from his homeland now which he thought were cool.
