The Vietnamese have an uncanny way of being able to tell when it’s about to rain and carry plastic ponchos under the seats of their bikes. As the heavens open, and you’re caught unawares, you can do nothing but stand there, soggy and marvel at them all zooming around, undeterred by the torrential downpour. Taken in Saigon, Vietnam. As featured in the group ‘Street Photography and Photojournalism’ – 10/05/09 This photograph is part of a set of 5 images taken while travelling in Vietnam.

Lifeguards – South Cronulla Beach, Sydney, Australia. After a long day keeping the beach safe, these lifeguards take a well earned break. This image grabbed me as I was walking along to do the Esplanade walk in South Cronulla. Lifegaurds are such an iconic part of Australian life and the sight of this lot having a break, some catching a few zzz’s in the afternoon light, some having a laugh and a few still keeping an eye on the surf, meant I had to take a shot. The HDR part came about as I took the shot quickly and only had a single Jpeg. Given the light and textured concrete and wall, I wanted to capture all that and so decided to see how sucessful HDR would be from a single Jpeg.

Shepherd at Karadağı (Black Mountain) in the region of Cumra, Middle Anatolia, Turkey. The Yayla principle is comparable to the Alpine pasture and dates back to times in which many people in Anatolia lived as nomads (Yörük). Any Turkish tribe had a river and a mountain. While places at the watercourses were used as winter home, the windy mountain residence was useful during the summer season. This principle is still in use, especially older people from the villages prefer to spend the summer time on the hills and mountains. In former times many nomadic tribes resided over the year at four different places: “Yazlak” in the spring, “Yaylak” in the summer, “Güzlek” in autumn and “Kışlak” in the winter. / Nomadic life came with the Turkish tribes from the steppes of Central Asia to Anatolia. In the Seljuk era during 13th Century and especially during the 16th and 17th Century, because of political and economic stability in the Ottoman Empire it changed more and more to urban life in the cities and more permanent settlements with agriculture and animal husbandry in the villages or to seminomadic lifestyle. Today some seminomads are still living in the Toros Mountains and in Southeastern Anatolia. Those people who live and work in the so-called Yayla, the anatolian high plateaus are characterized from the hard life of their surroundings. They are known as friendly and quiet contemporaries, but like the nature, especially the weather, they can be sometimes very fickle. However, the people on the high plateaus have strong characters. An old proverb says: “If a shepherd really wants something, he can make milk from felt.” © Photo and text by Jens Helmstedt / Editorial Use License @ Related images: / Greeting Cards and Wall Art Prints for Sale

Saw this gentleman speaking very softly to the horse… I sat back and listened as he had a conversation with the animal. I say conversation, as the horse appeared to give the occasional affirmative snorts. Nikon D-90 / VR 18-105MM, f/3.5-5.6G Black & White using Calculations feature in PS
