22nd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest People
Cambodian Basket Makers

Basket weaving is a common way for many Cambodian households to make money. This family had three generations working on the project outside their home. As I talked with them about their business, I grabbed some photos as the afternoon light peaked through the trees. They have been making baskets for over 150 years in their family.
