it will be the year of the tiger:


parks in Saigon are filled with flowers for Tet, the Vietnamese new year ( I already showed flowers taken with S-M-C f1.4750 and Super Tak f1.9/85 in these two threads:
http://forum.mflenses.com/s-m-c-1-4-50-flowers-t25027.html and http://forum.mflenses.com/f1-9-85mm-super-tak-spiced-up-flowers-of-saigon-t25075.html )

displays are impressive!

( Super Takumar f3.5/24mm )



people love to take pictures




some have them taken by one of the many photographers offering their services:


There are hundreds of professional photographers out in town, those at Tao Dan park they are easily identifiable for all wearing the same yellow T-shirt Wink



these are tired after a long day of work, this is late evening, the park already had announced to be closing. Earlier it was buzzing with people, but I think business is slow. Everybody seems to be carrying their own cameras nowadays, much snapping on hand phones. Of the pros I'd estimate about 50% use digital, 50% analog SLR, photo delivery is within the hour, most likely less.

bye bye for now

if interested I can show quite a few more photos of dressed up Saigon
but interest is, like on some shown here, more documentary than showing lens performance or for it being a decent photo.

all photos with Zeiss Ultron f1.8/50 on Pentax K-x
( but the one which states differently )

Agree with Orio on the favourite, but a very amusing series and informative
