smiling infectivity #2 Photo

Photographer’s Note

Saigon...or better...Ho Chi Minh City (just call it the way you want...I don't want to mess with any political argue about this name!) is known for its life and chaotic traffic...and you know...commuter traffic in a big city is always chaotic...and people get easily nervous!

but....sometimes it just takes a smile to soften tones and put out argues...just like this beautiful girl's smile.
how can you argue with her???? I couldn't!!!

this shot goes to my theme: one shot - one I got!

In WS you can have an idea of Saigon Traffic.

And here you can find the former In Smiling Infectivity picture

haha Silvio,

I like the photo in WS. Yes indeed, the traffic in Asia is incredible. I find it just funny and love the view of it. Nice smile of the girl, I think that a smile is always the best way to put argues. Usually on one motorbike goes entire family, here only two people .. Behind is a scooter? I made a scooter excursion in Angkor Wat, with a Cambodian boy as a driver. It was super!!!!

Pozdrawiam

Ciao Silvio. Questo tipo di infezione dovrebbe essere all'ordine del giorno. Immagine gradevole e ben contrastata. Le selle degli scooter le usano per fare i conti?

Ciao Silvio,
il sorriso della ragazza cattura la scena, gli scooter passano in secondo piano, grande il contrasto con lo sguardo severo degli altri scooteristi,

First I like to thank you for your critique on my previous post which is deleted for violation of TE guideline “no photo of family member.” I will repost without indicating that she is related to me. Though the incident itself, how I met her without knowing she is related to me to how I found out is as important and interesting as the photo itself. I understand that there should be rules, though I think this is a very special case but I hate to ask them to bend the rule just for me.
As for this photo, I really like it, the candid moment, the natural smile, yes very infecteous, one can't help but smile back at the monitor. Beautiful, I like the workshop showing just how caotic the traffic is now aday in Saignon. Great daily life shot on both photos. Thanks
Way

Ciao Silvio,
andrebbe bene per una pubblicità progresso sul comportamento alla guida: fermiamoci, sorridiamo al nostro vicino occasionale, cerchiamo di non essere sempre inc...ti ed in guerra con il mondo.
Buona giornata

Buongiorno caro Silvio,

comme un homme banale je reagis banallement: j'aime bien ce visage au premier plan. Ca ne m'etonne pas que tu n'ai pas choisi un autre visage. Nos sensibilites s'harmonisent. Mes felicitations pour cette belle vue et l'idee.

Amicalement a toi,

Branko

Ciao Silvio,

It's not easy to get a so tidy compo in such environments, even if they are much less cluttered than what you show in the funny WS. You were lucky to have such a cute model with a lovely smile, but you had a great sense of opportunity to be able to get such a superb snapshot. Bravo!

Regards, José.

Ciao Silvio.
Le sourire est une arme fatale qui fait des millions de victimes bienheureuses. Demain c'est la Saint Valentin, il faut penser à tous ces malheureuses victimes !
Bravo pour ce sourire de la journée !
Jacques
