[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is one of the many colorful lanes and courtyards in the small Mekong delta city of Can Tho. After the dusty, muted tones of Phnom Penh, Can Tho was startlingly colorful. Everywhere I looked there were the three primary colours set against the ubiquitous pale green tile.

Hello Trevor,

This reminds me of the time when I lived in Can Tho and went out to buy fresh paint for our gate. Yes, the choice was very basic: basic colours, no fancy in-betweenies and no product variety. Then we moved back to Europe and there were a zillion decisions to make just to paint one single wall in our living room! How I wished I was back in Can Tho...

Technically not the best of pictures, but it certainly struck a chord. Thanks for reminding me of those primaries, I had almost forgotten them!

Benny
