colours of bangkok, at least through my viewfinder - pt 1

as the title says, this shall be the first installment of our trip to bangkok. i don’t think i took any FANTASTIC shots, frankly because half the time i didn’t know what i was shooting at nor did i know why i was taking a picture. so the bottom line is i think i have a lot of pointless photographs. I wish i had a longer reach lens, perhaps then i could take more obscure pictures without disturbing the moment. i didn’t want to take frontal pictures of people at temples as i feared that it might make them feel uncomfortable while speaking to ‘god’.

i particularly like the way the light fell on her
