Hoi An was one of the places I enjoyed most in Vietnam. The old town (a world heritage site)is full of old buildings, temples and narrow streets. A very photogenic place. You can wander around the old town for free, but if you want to go into any of the buildings on the list you need to buy a ticket(which costs 55,000 Vietnamese Dong). With the ticket you can visit one of each of the different types of sights such as: one of the old family houses, one of the assembly halls, one of the museums, and then there is an other section for example the old Japanese bridge. If you then want to see any of the other buildings after you have seen your share you need to buy an extra ticket to go into them.
This man was enjoying the morning with his friend, just watching the world go by.

Hi Wanda,
very peaceful moment in a nice green and grey environment. I like the the depth you chose with the blurred leaves in foreground and the simple and pleasant view to the stairs. The contrast is excellent.
Lieben Gruss, Ulf

Very very funny!!
Great shot, you taken the right moment, the position of that dog is great....well done!

Hola Wanda. Gran foto tomada en un momento perfecto, el hombre con su taza de te que inspira paz, el perro a su lado...Perfecta. Saludos Ricardo.

Hi Wanda!

Great timing, very impressive framing and a well studied composition. Great focus and depth of field, but most important a great daily life scene. Congratulations!

Yes, dog is very good friend. Interesting composition, but I think so many light. I see nice flowers.

Hi Wanda,
There is a very pleasant mood on it, that perspires intimacy and tranquillity. Very attractive indeed. Not even the over exp (hardly avoidable in such situation) on the bg seems to interfere much.
Regards, José.

Hi Wanda

Infact this is nice picture, saying something, That dog and Old man sitting together is looks great. Could be better if able to take more close, still it is good.

regards

Very vietnamese daily scene at the porch of a house. All the elements in your picture are so vietnamese, it is amazing. The dog is the unexpected one especially in this frozen posture. The ice on the cake!

Hi Wanda,
Despite difficult backlight, what you have here is an interesting couple. Nice laid back atmosphere, he seems to be enjoying his morning tea while his friend is more interested in whats going on outside. Strange, the dog didn't pick you up.
With Greetings from India
