Photographer’s Note

I have a great admiration for japanese organization. Here we are in Ta Kuang Si waterfalls, Louang Prabang province, an wonderful but remote place. I and my friends was tired and all of a sweat, when finally reached these place, after hours of navigation on the Mekong river and a long trip by a forest path. You can imagine our surprise when we saw this group of japanese people coming there by a confortable van, relaxed and ready to shot hundreds of pictures!

I took this picture from the opposite side of the river generated by waterfalls

Nice shot Paolo. I've done a WS to focus on the 3 gentlemen in the centre as I feel the lady detracts from the scene a little. I've also cleaned up the colours to increase the contrast against the green background. Hope you like it.

This is PRICELESS, Paolo! Delightful notes to go with it but you have absolutely captured this spirit of cool and meticulous organization, and maybe a priprietary attitude toward Asian countries...(but let's not go too deep into that - just look at the smug lok on those faces...)
But more than all that it's a super photo, my friend, beautiful green frame all around and that parapet below, and all those different though similar expressions. Great documentary, great satire (intentional or not). Love it! Francis
