Ok, you can have a drink now. Nice series bro!

 

[NazgulKing]

How do you achieve the vigineting effect?

 

[HoangHung]

Nice series.

I'm not sure if it was covered in Lonely Planet, but if you ever come to Hanoi again, you can try the Hanoi fresh beer ( or "bia hơi Hà Nội") to satisfy your drinking madness

 

[Srono]

Haha Gary bro, looking forward to seeing your photos.
Very sorry that I am so busy with the wedding & don't have time to bring you around, paiseh. Hope you like the boat trip also lol.

Not a big fan of Heineken, still prefer English ale like Boddingtons or London Pride

People always ask me when I shoot street photography:
- Do I shoot from the hip without looking through the viewfinder?
- How far am I from my "victims"?
- Do I use a tele lens?
- How do you do composition is such a split second?

My reflection in this picture answers all your questions....

All excellent shots Gary. I really like those 2.

You are now a black belt street photog! Very impressive work, it's time you think about doing an exhibition.

Thanks for the encouraging words Max! But I think I'm still far from exhibition standards!
