Lunch in red.., a photo from Bangkok, Central

Photographer's Note

Still in Chatuchak market, there is a huge food section, where you can find different dishes from all over Thailand.I was walking around, when I got attracted by the colors of this stand. The people in the BG were not moving at all and seemed to be lost in their thought.

This is another Chatuchak photo

Yes, many times sellers likes to meet byers. In your picture feels like there is no byers near.
You can get pictures with byers feeling, and also with sellers feeling.

Composition works, it goes from rich red front to middle main, and backside. Really thrue picture. Gives thinks.
Thanks Marilyn.

I like the strong reds and oranges in this shot as well as the repeating patterns of the produce display. Very interesting daily life shot. I guess the busy time is to come.

Hi Marilyn - the top part is a bit too random and irrelevant, but the patterns colours and textures in the lower part are excellent, well done.

This is a very nice arrangement of colours and textures, Marilyn. The people behind are doing what all Bangkokians do when it's hot – lounge, and Cahuchak, can get very hot! Your frame has ended up a bit square,; not the strongest frame shape!, But your strongest horizontal line (the top of the counter) is below the half way point, so that it does not look too symmetrical. I might have been tempted to see this as a 'landscape' format and turned my camera the other way. Food looks interesting but I feel that it often needed people to give it a human touch, just as you have done. Thanks for sharing. Kevin
