Sorting Out
Following up on my previous post at the Tekka (Zhujiao) Market, I caught this overhead view of a storekeeper sorting out stalks of pandan leaves. I like the clean lines and patterns that I was able to get at this high-angle.

Striking A Bargain At Saigon Square
Saigon Square in Ho Chi Minh City was stocked with tonnes of fake-branded goods on our recent visit to Vietnam. All the big-name fashion brands were represented — some looked like the real deal, while others looked obviously counterfeit. I manage to find a high vantage point from a stair-case landing to catch the action. Colour balance and exposure was tricky. My 40D did a good job at ISO 1600. I converted the final shot to black-and-white for a more journalistic feel.
Watching The Traffic Go By
I am back from a short holiday trip to Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. The traffic in Ho Chi Minh City has to be seen to be believed. There must be a million motorcycles buzzing around day and night. Just crossing the road is a dizzying experience by itself! We took a coffee break from the chaos at a cafe where I found a high vantage point to take this shot.
