Young  Burmese child and his father in a rice field near Bago during the sunset in 
                     January 1999. The child has the face covered with tanaka. The tanaka has  
                    a protective function for the skin because the sun is very violent in this part    
                    of the Myanmar. Otherwise the tanaka eases skin, perfume and take care of the   
                    hepatic problems (in drinkable solution). Don't hesitate to walk you in the evening    
                    in the rice fields, the villagers of the Myanmar rarely meet some tourists and   
                    they will be delighted to welcome you. The serenity of   
                    the country in Burma during the sunset is amazing..
