A Fatherly Moment

Come end of April, the hustle and bustle that is Tekka Market (or Zhujiao Center) will come to an end, at least during the period of renovation works that will take place. I have had good photo opportunities here on my numerous visits. I am doubtful if the market renovations will still allow such high-angle perspectives when there are completed… such is the pace (and the price) of progress, sometimes 🙁

This colourful balloon peddler caught my eye amongst the cacophony of the traffic in Ho Chi Minh City. Between watching the traffic and strolling along the street, I managed to catch the peddler taking a break and sitting down by the roadside. The lighting then wasn’t exactly fantastic — I thought the colours of the balloons made up for that, though, especially after post-processing with selective desaturation.
