while sitting in a street side cafe in Saigon I watched a young lady's bicycle getting fixed





as you can see by the tired lady venting off heat the repair took a while Wink
light came from left side front, mostly little light and contrast on the faces, still I took a whole series of photos, see the 50 pic slideshow:

first 2 or 3 taken with Super Takumar f3.5/24, all the following with S-M-C f1.4/50 on Pentax K-x ( not always well focused Embarassed ) the EXIF erroneously say 24mm for all

hope somebody will like it
cheers,
Andreas

I guess it took a while for the bike to be repaired.
She`s yawning in the second picture.
Nice series Kuuan.

thank you very much Thomas.
this was the very first time I had made a series like that, it simply happenend. I was surprised that she never seemed to notice and just kept on snapping, but who knows, maybe she did notice?

haha, yes, clueless!
an unlikely pair, she holds her hands up not out of despair, but for venting herself

certainly took a while.
She went from first messing with her hair



to feeling hot, venting herself


then started pondering, yawned,
next watched him doing his job


and finally she dozed into deep pondering - her expression did not change for quite some time,
all while he is being busy doing a thorough job, at a busy intersection at rush hour



most photos lack focus accuracy, the foreground more than anything is disturbing..
but I hope that all viewed in chronological order is fun, again: http://www.flickr.com/photos/kuuan/sets/72157626687744430/show/
