YANGON - April 1991

Just arrived in Myanmar, finally!
Thrown my luggage on the bed at hotel
and run out along the city's streets.
Never happened before to walk
in the middle of the roads
downtown in such a big city
the traffic was really non existent
and it was a journey
since so long dreamed...
(I think I have to buy a longyi(*) for me
as all the men wear it
and it looks comfy).
from my diary


Longyi (IPA: [lòuɲdʒì]; Burmese: is a sheet of cloth. It is approximately 2 m (5.56 ft) long and 80 cm (31.49 in.) wide. The cloth is often sewn into a cylindrical shape. It is worn around the waist, running to the feet. It is held in place by folding fabric over, without a knot. It is also sometimes folded up to the knee for comfort. It is widely worn in Myanmar.

The feet sticking out of the bus, a lovely detail. As much of SE Asia rushes full steam ahead, Rangoon has not changed at all. Did you ever get your longyi, Luca?

Helo Luca
Nice day live motiv and cool feet hanging there
Bravo
Cheers,braca

hello Luca,

Great photo, i like everything in this shot, the man posing at his beautiful car, the feet out the window of the bus :) great daily life photo.
greetings, inn

Luca: I take it you've travelled to Burma twice. For just a short time in action, this is a great, candid, spontaneous shot. Film scan here is perfect. Really as sharp as digital. A fine image snare. regards, c

Hi Luca,
Really cool shot full of local ambience. Feet on the window opening describe relaxed atmosphere. Good colour combination of dark green of the old Chevrolet and the red bus. Even the license plate looks so different from anywhere else.

Bonjour Luca,
Superbe prise de vue ! Voila un instant de vie bien cadré et techniquement superbe. Bravo.

Hi Luca,
such a great image of the young man posing on that beautiful oldtimer. A beautiful scenery with nice colours. I even enjoy the guy with his feet hanging out from the window of the bus in the bg.
Best wishes,
Nino

Hio Luca,
great daily life shot. I like the way the man hangs on his beautiful truck, the expression of being bored and the feet hanging out of the buses windows.
Regards, gerrit

love capture,
