Pierrot Posted August 25, 2008 Author Share Posted August 25, 2008 PierrotDid you like my PM? Very nice, thank you. It's obvious I'm not a pro ! Actually the same view at night, with the full moon like last week, is absolutely fabulous but everytime I try to take a picture it's just blur. I really need to improve my technique.

Kwong Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 What do you see from your window ? It's not a beauty contest, we don't care about the quality of your picture, just show us what you see right now. I'm in Hong Kong, yesterday we had a typhoon , not that bad, and on the good side it washed away the pollution. And from your window, what do you see ? View from my window. 10 years ago, north of Discovery Bay, HK View from my window (at present), South Bangkok Did you take your photo in Discovery bay or Ping chau?

PhilHarries Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Well you said it wasn't a beauty pageant. This from my office, haven't got any from my digs. Unit 40 (Power Island) HHP steam boilers and common flue gas duct. This one from atop the Resid Cracker Complex (+73 metres). Looking away over the rice fields to the distant mountains.

PhilHarries Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Binh Son Refinery project just outside the sleepy village of Dung Quat (pronounced Yung Quat if you're from south or Zung Quat if you're from north Viet Nam) about 90km south of Da Nang. Dung Quat main street. The whole area is now designated the Dung Quat Economic Zone and in five to ten years, if all goes to plan, will be a mass of heavy and light industry, petrochemical and chemical works and housing for the workforce. Sad but that's what we call progress. Everybody is currently lauding China for the superlative show it put on aka the Olympics. We should remember that it all is on the back of similar industrialisation but on a massive scale and at a massive environmental price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really need to improve my technique. Why not post your question about technique in our http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/Photography-Arts-f84.html forum. Nice post "Pierrot" Thank you Back to the topic at hand. Me office view in Bangkok from Monday to Thrusday noon from the West Runway of Suvarnabhumi Airport and then from my house at the week-ends in Kanchanaburi, Bedroom Window View and one from outside me front door just a few meters away even got me in that shot. Your turly Kan Win P.S. Any chance of folks re-sizing their photos for us on dail-up. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just for your information. Your picture is a southeast direction. Thailand is southwest of DB Nakorn Phatnom is 1,112 km from DB. The nearest piont of Thailand to Hong Kong. I got a few relatives who live in there, I enjoy telling them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got a few relatives who live in there, I enjoy telling them. At least someone is paying attention, thank you !! I also want to thank all the nice people who sent their pictures, but I wish we could get pictures from two more places : - Farms in Thailand. I would like to see more about, as the sub forum says, "Thailand's unique approach to agriculture." - Koh Pahngan. I went there in 1984 (easy to remember, "Made in Thailand" was playing everywhere). I believe when I was there we were no more than 50 falangs on the island. I read recently that full moon parties now bring regularly crowds of more than 25,000 people (really ?). How does it look like ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
