Bangkok 1972, a photo from Bangkok, Centre

Photographer's Note

Another photo from our first trip to Asia, this time from Bangkok.
A man was squatting at his home beside a canal working on something that we couldn't see.
Scanned from a slide.

Stay with the small view for this one.

Hello Ian,
A good daily life photo with this working man and his dog behind him. The photo has got lots of details, which are clearly captured, despite the low lighting.

Hello Ian,
Nice scene from Bangkok. Always strange that the people in Asia can remain in this squatting position for a long time. have they other knees than us? Excellent quality of the photo and scan. My photos from that time are in a very bad state.
A shame that we can see only the small version.
Have a nice weekend

Hi Ian,
the quality is poor indeed but it is a fine almost 50 year old document. Good light too.
Thanks and regards,
Gerrit

Hello Ian,
I would say the quality is similar to that of my scans from the same time. Not comparable to digital photos but good enough to enjoy the details and old atmosphere. With my Mac computer I can just pull the photo to the desktop to enjoy the large version. I think with a lot of computers you can right click to do the same. Some members have another way of linking to the large version, but I have no idea how they do it.
Best regards,
Gert

Bonjour Ian,

C'est cette position qui me surprend toujours en Thailande. Cette position accroupie que les gens prennent pour travailler dans cette région du monde. Cela semble tellement inconfortable.

Amicalement

Serge
