Rafts of logs on the River Amazon.

Rafts of logs on the River Amazon. Small numbers of logs tied together into rafts for floating down the river. A man is standing on one of the rafts and two men are in the water manoeuvring the log rafts. A local canoe is moored in the background. The photographer is on a cruise on the Swedish passenger cruise ship Kungsholm (1928) and is probably in one of her boats. The precise location in the Amazon is unknown.
