Speed
When I lived in Bangkok, even though I had a car, one of my favourite ways of getting around was by Tuk Tuk.
Three wheeled machines that defy all laws of physics, and the road. This image was taken with a very wide lens as we sped through traffic to our destination. Lot’s of fun :<)

Brilliant shot – love it! Not that I would take a tuk-tuk anymore (I value my life), but brings back memories of when I first came to Thailand.

Can almost smell the air!
Dave Lloyd replied
Alexander, Hi. Thanks for the comment. I had a jacket on tonight as it was so cold, but the air still smells the same :<)
James Godber
aaah. November. Saw this in your calendar and loved it!
Dave Lloyd replied
James, thank you. Actually, just changed November as this wasn’t really a scene.
Simon Mears
awesome shot.. gives a real sense of daily life, and getting about, in Thailand..
Dave Lloyd replied
Simon, thanks. I love Tuk Tuk’s. I live in Hua Hin now and the ones here have a four stroke motor. The drivers are also very sedate. It’s just not the same :<)
Ken Thomas

Ken, Hi. Thank you. It was fun to do :<)

I know I already commented, but I always come back to this image. To me, this is THE definitive tuk-tuk shot. Such a wonderful shot. Look forward to seeing more of your work in the new South East Asia group they’ve started :o)
