"Fish is an essential ingredient in Cambodian cooking - and therefore an important part of Cambodian culture. This photograph artistically shows two common fish drying in the sun near a market in Western Cambodia. The red fish is trey niet and the other is prahok, used to make distinctive Cambodian fish paste."
