The Old Port …
Pinisi boats lined up along the Old Port of Jakarta
Sunda Kelapa the old port of Jakarta in Kota Tua with its traditional Pinisi Bugis Makassar boats still swarming busy up till this day with workers loading and unloading cargo for inter-island trading. Taken with my Canon EOS film camera using Ilford Delta 400.
These images are part of my book Journeys Java to Flores.
