[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The Mekong Delta feeds the richest soil in Vietnam. Its origin starts on the Tibetan highland plateau. It is also the home of scores of people whom boats is their only home. All their needs is right there on the flow of the Mekong.

Amazing daily life scene Thien...Everything is perfect...Colors, composition,light, framing...Very well done!

WOW! WOW! You scored big time here, Thien. Wonderful image. I like the colors of the boat...truly amazing. The characters are also nice and fit very well into the context being presented here (that single leg in the window is also a nice touch). The only thing that's missing is a bit of sharpness (I'm certain you got the focus right) to bring out the details as there are many. Truly a wonderful sight. Very, very well done!

Great shot of daily life. Good composition and colors. The three men in slightly different poses (plus leg in window) are each great. I wish there was just a little more room, so that the man on the right wasn't at the edge of the frame.

Great, sharp & bright shot!
Good work again Thien...

Excellent shot! Would perhaps crop a bit, just above the text...

Congratulation Thien. I guess you had a wonderful scene here (people, colours...) and did not lose the opportunity to make a great shot.

I really love this one.

Just a fantastic shot. The colors, the motion, the composition. Only a minor problem: makes me jealous ;-).

Very good photograph, the colors are perfect and it really interesting, is well seen.

Super photo, I like it very much. The color, the subject, all is perfect. Bravo.
Very well done.

Really great, dynamic shot. The three subjects provide three interesting focal points and the shot as a whole really gives us a feeling of the Mekong Delta.

That's a really lively picture, because we can feel the boat movement and the men's activity. Colors and exposure are perfect and the sunpatches are doing a good job by being just where the action is. A very attractive shot, Thien.

Good catch! Good composition without distracting details!

I love this photo, full of life, full of colour.
