Walking Street-Pattaya, a photo from Chon Buri, East

Photographer's Note

What I like about this photo is that it is actually not that funny, just good old infamous Walking Street being itself.
Pattaya, and its nearby beach town Jomtien, are known around the world as Holiday package destinations, raucous nightlife, and probably never for its pink wigs.... :-)

Hi Herve!
Aha! Yes the girls are looking a little tired. Walking street takes a special kind of energy and not for the faint of heart...haha. Nice one! It makes me think now....dare I try to bring my camera? Nice to see you here again. Fine work, warm regards,
Steve

Sawadee khap Hervé
Il n'a surement pas bu que de l'eau, l'homme à la perruque rose... Bon cadrage avec les filles qui nous appellent... mais il faut résister, tel Ulysse résistant aux sirènes!

It looks to me from your galley that you are very good in reportage-like photos.
This is really impressive. I like the strong contrast between the man, who is probably having fun, and the girls, who are probably younger than sixteen.
Very interesting.

Hi Herve !

You were really bold when taking this picture ...I´m not sure if i would have dared or not but your attempt is brave and shows with energy and eloquence why in Spain some people call that place as "puta ya"...Yess first division Western ridiculous losers seeking for extra young flesh (they are really really young girls !)

A very interesting documentary value !

Best wishes
