[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
In the occasion of Lunar New Year, I would like to send you, all my friend and members on TE my best wishes of New Year, the year of the Pig. I hope the new year will bring good health, prosperity, success and happiness to you and your family.
This is the largest Ground Pig in Viet Nam. It was made by clay at Yasaka-Sai Gon Nha Trang Hotel in 2007 for festival of the Lunar New Year, her size: 1.5x3 meter and weight: 1600kg.

"People born in the Year of the Pig are chivalrous and gallant. Whatever they do, they do with all their strength. For Boar Year people, there is no left or right and there is no retreat. They have tremendous fortitude and great honesty. They don't make many friends but they make them for life, and anyone having a Boar Year friend is fortunate for they are extremely loyal. They don't talk much but have a great thirst for knowledge. They study a great deal and are generally well informed. Boar people are quick tempered, yet they hate arguments and quarreling. They are kind to their loved ones. No matter how bad problems seem to be, Boar people try to work them out, honestly if sometimes impulsively. They are most compatible with Rabbits and Sheep".

You are lucky because in Vietnam, you celebrate the Chinese New Year ahead of us.
Because the Vietnamese oversea don't have a pure New Year Day for ourselves, we celebrate both: Solar New Year on Jan 1st and Lunar New Year with the Chinese people on Feb 18, 2007 — twenty four hours after you.

HEllo Huy:
Funny composition!
It seems to be a very nice place to visit.

+ DOF
+ Lighting
+ Colours saturation
+ Composition, as well as the note on it.

TFS
Cheers
Edgar.

PS. :-) tomorrow ...

Cher Huy
Je te souhaite une bonne année et de bonnes fêtes du Têt.
J'espère que l'on te verra un peu plus souvent sur TE cette année.
Belle image pour illustrer l'évênement
Amicalement
Bertrand
