Old Lady at Floating Market, a photo from Ratchaburi, Central

Photographer's Note

This photo was taken at floating market near Bangkok. To get there I went to a travel office at Kao Son Road and bought a tour. I have to tell you that I was waiting for a really true local floating market and what I saw was a tourist floating market. But it was great anyway. Everything that you want to buy you should negotiate, as all Thailand. You can buy local food and gifts so cheap.

Oi primo! Sempre tive vontade de conhecer este mercado e fotograf�-lo! Aposto que depois de integrar o TE, voc� mesmo gostaria de rev�-lo sob novos e diversos 滱gulos. � um lugar extremamente repleto de oportunidades, imagino.
Aqui voc� pegou um bom momento, e quantos detalhes? Chap徼s diferentes, barco, remo, balan蓷, balaio, remo, 墔ua...muito legal! Acho que a foto s� n緌 faz mais sucesso aqui porque a nitidez est� um pouco prejudicada e h� uns pontinhos de superexposi誽o. Mas, particularmente, acho que tanto as boas fotos como os bons registros merecem aplausos. Valeu meu! Qualquer hora destas poder燰mos fazer um programinha legal e sair para fotografar juntos...
abra誽o!
Zeca

Hi Leonardo,
In terms of composition, framing and story, this is great image. It's great because, even without Photographer's Note, it contains all the ingredients to tell us more about this lady and her way of life.
Tehcnically, image could be much better, but given type of camera you had, and the fact you made it while being on the water, I think it's technically as good as it can be in such situation.
Thanks for sharing.

Regards,
Goran
