[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
It's the Tet festival in Vietnam and I've never seen Saigon looking so good. Flowers everywhere, and streets filled with colour, light and happy crowds in the evenings.
This is a simple close up of one of the street-side illuminations.
It's a bit noisy as it was shot at ISO 1600. I tried to use Neat Image to reduce it but not very successfully.
Happy New Year!

Hi Brian,
I see we'll be in the same places at the same time! I'm going to Cambodia at the end of this month, then to Myanmar in mid march...!
You found a nice symbolism in this picture, graphical and colorful abstract compo. Sharp and clean image
Greetings from Bangkok

Great mix of colors .
Wish you a happy year of the rat, with more great pictures.

Hi Brian,
a good composition of the basic colours. Happy mood...
Cheers Chris

Very nice composition of colors. I like the three distinct areas (plus some black) and different texture/geometry of each. Well seen.
With the high ISO I'm usually more concerned about the harsher colors than the noise, but I think you've managed that quite well.

Chào Brian,

Neat Image did help. You have found a symbolic POV amongst vast scene of Le Loi street.

Regards,
Huy

Uh, this is wonderful compo, Brian!
Excellent idea and well spotted!
Very inventive stuff - real refreshment!

PS. You uploaded this one while in Ho Chi Minh?
