Night Cafe Photo | TrekEarth

Photographer’s Note

The shot was taken about 11pm. I had no tripod and don't like to use flash but I had to try, the stairs at the left belong to an abandoned french colonial building that gave an special atmosphere to the popular street cafe.

Hello Xavier,

This is a shot I really like, especially for its typical late-night-along-the-Mekong atmosphere: the colours, the ads on the wall, the tables and seats... The French house in the background is a great plus. Great work!

Hello Xavier,
great atmospheric shot. The old building creates the atmosphere of a stage set.You managed the light well. Lots of interesting detail.

Hello Xavier
This shot is full of atmosphere - it could be felt even in the thumbnail. I thought at first that it was an interior, it has a very theatrical feel to it - and a cast of interesting characters. The eye contact with the waitress makes us part of the scene.
Best wishes....Maggie
