A collection of random street photos from my four days in Bangkok over Easter Weekend this year. There was quite a bit of walking around despite the hot weather – and typical of Asian cities, it’s all about the street food. One particular thing I noticed about this city was that traffic is a big problem – gridlock and congestion everywhere in the downtown area.

Peter, while looking at something unrelated, I found out about your photography. I really appreciate you B&W’s and in this series the image by the riverside; the father and son. It makes me want to join them in:-)
