Morning in Lake Pedu, Malaysia.

The sun rises from the back of the jungle during a cold foggy morning, hence created the white rays effect. The two people are members of a honey hunting group waiting for their boat to carry them to the location of a tropical bee tree. There are at least 50 colonies of beehives festooned on the branches & the giant honey bees Apis dorsata produce the best tropical honey in the world.
