[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Saigon night, after photographing in the Temple of Jade Emperor. Small tavern selling mainly Tiger and BahBahBah (333) beer. It's hot and humid. And one of the most colourful and interesting cities I've ever seen.

Great composition; I like your choice to put the "waiter" to the left in the frame so we get a good view of the tile floor, the Coke/Pepsi crates, the fan and the posters. Your title is quite appropriate - this man sure looks like he is waiting for something to happen! I like the B&W but I wonder what it would look like in color? Maybe very different but just as good?

  • Great

Hello Dumitru,

You've made a great bl/w picture that somehow captures the colourful soul of HCMC. A great daily life shot with a touch of art. I love it.

Benny
