Advertisement Posted July 30, 2016 Posted July 30, 2016 Hi derphilipp, Take a look here Lounging in Vietnam M6/35 Cron/Portra. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
DigitalHeMan Posted July 30, 2016 Share #2 Posted July 30, 2016 Nice candid shots. I shot a similar series when I was in Istanbul a couple of years ago - it's always fun to see how much time others have to just sit around, especially when we always seem to be so busy......

NB23 Posted August 12, 2016 Share #6 Posted August 12, 2016 I have to be honest about vietnam and many other asian countries. Before the internet, it was my dream to visit. But all I ever see from those countries is people sitting. Sitting on this sidewalk. Sitting on that sidewalk. Crouching here. Crouching there. Eat soup while crohching, crouching while Eating soup. Crouch sleeping. Sleeping and crouching. If I base my opinion on the 1million+ photos I've seen from vietnam My conclusion is that tere's nothing interesting to shoot over there. Except people crouching. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least you worked hard to avoid all the people crouching ad infinitum. Edited August 28, 2016 by NB23 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest satrycon Posted August 28, 2016 Share #12 Posted August 28, 2016 here you go..interesting to hear your genuine opinion of my terrible photos & your vociferous opinion of disabled people.

NB23 Posted August 28, 2016 Share #13 Posted August 28, 2016 (edited) here you go..interesting to hear your genuine opinion of my terrible photos & your vociferous opinion of disabled people. You shouldn't have such a low opinion of your own work, though. As far as I'm concerned, I haven't judged them, and HDR is a matter of taste. About the disabled, I have no idea where you read my vociferous opinion on them. But shooting them doesn't necessarily mean that you respect them more than if you don't shoot them. Edit: i meant crouching, not crutching. Edited September 2, 2016 by jaapv Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest satrycon Posted August 28, 2016 Share #14 Posted August 28, 2016 FYI. not even one of my 3531 photographs on flickr are HDR. whatever.
