Deepwater Rice - The Meghna River ferry ghat - Dhaka to Comilla road, Bangladesh


Not on the scale of the Jamuna and Ganges but still a mighty river
In the dry season, with no wind the two men on the bank are pulling the river boat!
and, the drop down on to the ferry is quite steep

Passengers on the roof of the bus may look precarious - but when one bus went down the ramp, across the ferry and into the river those on top survived!
The wet season brings lots of water in the river and windpower
