L A O S - Luang Prabang

[LowLights]

This thread is now like a run away train....

Here some more to share

Yup can see that this mother is so happy with the Polaroid photos too.. stole a head down shot

 

[stevepow]

Did anyone try this one? I heard it has even more "power".

May end up looking like this if you take too much though...

That's a good one..meh...

 

[stevepow]

We were all shooting and shooting.
Little did I know that these few fellows here (read, Rudy, AlexK, toolbox22) were under the influence of the potent
Cobra-wine. No wonder they don't tire like I did. Hey fellows, own up.... or better yet, put up more of your photos here...
D2-32

We were Santa Claus for a while. AlexK distributed stationary, I took polaroid photos of the people and giving the photos to them,
SereneXMM distributing chocolates and biscuits. We did virtually everything except gave them money - strict instruction from Adrian... haha...
D2-33

Toolbox22 was was the billboard top Santa Claus of the season.
His heroic act of generosity was captured from all angles by all the third party photographers.
Here is my angle. I am sure you guys out there have some more angles you all want to share...

D2-34

(er... pardon that unsightly rod sticking through his head... sorry...)

Another pix of our Santa Claus surrounded by the kids

Adding on to the scenes from the Hmong village.......here is my take of the "cute" Hmong man taking a puff...

 

[toolbox22]

I noticed that the whole Hmong village had only one water point. This was it..

Those who lived higher up the hill had to make their way all the way down and back up again with the water...

 

[limwhow]

Wooaaahhh.... I disappeared for a few hours only and all of you Cobra-poisoned people pumped in so many photos ah! Yeah!

vngks - yah, I was waiting for you to put in the gold panning picture cos I missed it totally.
LowLights - you and vngks actually shot them looking at the polaroid ah? Wah, good job, man, you both!
stevepow - yah, I was anticipating your this angle of toolbox22. I think either LowLights or AlexK has the last angle still... kekeke...
Toolbox22 - your water point was great! How could I have missed that? Lousy record shooter, me... hehehe...

Gentlemen, doing great, doing great! Let's keep it going....

Thanks to Adrian (+ sgtrekker) for organizing this Luang Prabang trip. I enjoyed myself during this trip especially being together with a fun bunch of fellow photographers and at the same time, being poisoned teruk teruk. :nono:

Wah, AlexK - mo tak ding aaaahhhhh...!
Your waterfall in black and white - no wonder that day you asked me to zooom all the way in... but too bad my tripod plate was all lose already and I had to give up.
And these two young novice monks - wooaahh... mo tak ding ah!

This one was taken by LowLights and emailed to us.
Thanks so much, Brother LowLights!
It's so beautiful and it shows the sharpness of the D3 so well that we have to put it up.
Just to show only. Keke...
Both of us at Ban Xiang Hai.
