Jan 11, 2017 – [Wednesday] Travel Favs: Lady on a motorcycle

Hue, Vietnam, taken on December 27, 2015

A review of my past photos reveals some rather interesting shots that I had forgotten about, some candid and unintentional, like this one. I must have quickly snapped this photo of two ladies on a motorcycle in Vietnam as I was passing by, without noticing the expression on the face of the lady in the back. Captions, anyone?

Jan 10, 2017 – [Tuesday] Black & White: By the fire

Sapa, Vietnam, taken on December 31, 2015

The trek to Sapa involved stopping by a local’s home to see what rural Vietnamese life is like. It was the cold rainy season and we were shivering all over upon entering the house – should have joined the party around the fire! (See the original photo in colour.)

Dec 27, 2016 – [Tuesday] Black & White: Rays of light

Huế, Vietnam, taken on December 27, 2015

A year ago I was in Huế, Vietnam, where my friend and I got (more than) slightly lost in a local area and had a difficult time spotting a taxi. We walked through the streets without knowing where we were going, but at least the sun was shining brightly and accompanying us on our search for the way! (See the original photo in colour.)

Nov 15, 2016 – [Tuesday] Black & White: Streets of Hanoi

Hanoi, Vietnam, taken on December 29, 2015

My tour of Hanoi included a ride on a cyclo through the old quarter of the city. It was quite an experience navigating through the busy streets on this three-wheeled vehicle, and I was glad that the elderly gentleman who rode the cyclo knew where he was going as I would have certainly gotten lost if I were to wander around by myself, not to mention probably being hit by one of the countless motorbikes!
